Good evenin’, Readers! How was your Friday? Mine was extremely busy. I was cleaning the whole house. And was walking around the neighborhood. Until finally getting rested.
I embrace Jesus as my Savior and Lord. I experience His grace, peace and hope for the future. Was I there when they crucified my Lord? I read the New Testament passage that the One they crucified is in fact Jesus, my Lord. “The Lord” is God in the Old Testament. The original Hebrew word for “Lord” (YHWH) had no vowels and was not vocalized. It was considered too sacred to pronounce, therefore, when vowels were added to the original Hebrew texts they weren’t added to “the name” (YHWH). I second with most scholars think that “Yahweh” is more accurate than “Jehovah”. Because of “Jehovah” name was invented by Catholic. As I remember one of the former Jehovah’s Witnesses told her experience story that Jehovah has two separate things “Jeh” is “Jah” is Angel and other “ovah” is Devil. So, this is why not to use “Jehovah” anymore. As I haven’t seen today’s Catholic believers use “Jehovah”. They use “The Lord”, that’s it. On the other hand, the Greek translation of the Old Testament, the Septuagint, this sacred name (YHWH) is translated “Kyrios” (Lord). It really is quite the truth that “Jesus is Lord” (“Kyrios”) and that our Lord has been crucified for us.
Were I there when they crucified my Lord? I find it break my heart to read the scripture verses about that Jesus was suffering from the abuse, torture and crucifixion. They crucified my true friend and my Lord. Jesus is my King, my Messiah, my Savior and my Lord. I’m not letting the hypocrite religious leaders to stop me from loving Him. They have out of the context that Jesus was beside the two men crucified with Him. I am thankful that God allows me, in a tiny way, to enter into the sufferings of Jesus – with love and forgiveness.
Next month will be Good Friday, I keep in track of reading Lent devotional for 40 days until Easter Sunday. I continue to serve the Lord, my true God. Are you looking forward to celebrating the risen Christ? I do! Have a good blessed weekend. Light and love 💖❤️, Loi
