This is an incredible passage—the thief on the cross. This event fulfills Jesus’ and the prophets’ prophesies. Judgment is coming upon Jerusalem because of their rejection of Jesus. Jesus tells the mourners that they should morn for themselves. Two criminals were to be executed with Jesus. Isaiah prophesied that Jesus would be numbered with the transgressors. This includes us as well so that we may be redeemed. Both criminals reviled Jesus. Then one rebuked the other criminal. He became the first fruits of Jesus’ redemption. He said to the other, “Do you not fear God?” He recognized is own sinfulness and guilt. He made no excuses for his crimes. He admits guilt and sinfulness, worthy of destruction. Yet he proclaims Jesus as the righteous one. How did he reach this conclusion? He must have heard Jesus’ words during the march to the cross, hearing His compassion for the people. The Jews should have believed, much more than this criminal. The Jews’ expectations were erroneous. What are our expectations? Are they as the Bible describes? Do we acknowledge Him as the Son of God? Do we acknowledge that Jesus died on the cross in our place? The criminal believed that Jesus could save him, that there is a future hope. “Remember me when you come into your kingdom,” he said. He knew that the old order would be changed, and he wanted to be a part of Jesus’ kingdom. He sought Jesus’ mercy. How could he see what others could not? It is not just objective reasoning. The Holy Spirit was at work in the man’s heart, changing his heart of stone into a heart of flesh. This conversion is all of the will of God. Jesus offered assurance to the man, that they would be together that very day in paradise. There is an intermediate state in which our souls go into the presence of Jesus, where the righteous dwell, while our bodies rest in the grave until the resurrection. Is. 53: 10 points to Jesus’ victory over the cross. Jesus sees this victory in the criminal. We must marvel at the grace of God. Why were we made to hear Jesus’ voice? Because He loves us, even though we don’t deserve it. There are actually deathbed conversions, yet today is the day of salvation. We should take every opportunity to present the gospel to those who are seriously ill. ... See MoreSee Less

Come to North Greenville Church at 7:00 pm on Thursday, March 17, during Easter Week, for a worship service of preaching, scripture reading, prayer and congregational singing. Led by the Rev. David Huffman, we will remember Jesus’ ministry in the upper room during Passover Week, who ushered in the new commandment of remission of sins in His blood shed on the cross. Our observance of the Lord’s Supper during the service is open to all trusting in Christ alone for their salvation, and who are members in good standing in a Bible-believing church.The post Maundy Thursday Service: March 17 first appeared on North Greenville Church. ...

Why did God wait so long to reveal the doctrine of the Trinity, that He is One God subsisting in three distinct persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit?B. B. Warfield (1851-1921) answered this question in the following way:"The Old Testament may be likened to a chamber richly furnished but dimly lighted; the introduction of light brings into it nothing which was not in it before; but it brings out into clearer view much of what is in it but was only dimly or even not at all perceived before."The mystery of the Trinity is not revealed in the Old Testament; but the mystery of the Trinity underlies the Old Testament revelation, and here and there almost comes into view."Thus the Old Testament revelation of God is not corrected by the fuller revelation that follows it, but only perfected, extended and enlarged." -“The Biblical Doctrine of the Trinity,” in Biblical Doctrines.See the linked video for a five minute answer to this question. ...

If we had the light of the Trinity at the beginning of the human race, we would not have yet been able to take it in.
