故事
大祭司和律法教师认为耶稣是个罪犯，要受惩罚。因此，星期五一大早，他们带着祂去见彼拉多，当时彼拉多是总督。彼拉多从自己的殿出来问：“这个人做错了什么？”
人们回答说：“祂不给凯撒纳税！祂的教导引起了骚乱。祂甚至声称自己是基督！”
彼拉多看着耶稣问：“他们说的是真的吗？你真是犹太人的王吗？”
“我的国不来自这个世界，但是，是的，我是王，”耶稣回答道。
彼拉多考虑了一会儿。然后，他转身看着人群说：“我觉得这个人没有犯罪。祂没做错什么！”
但人们坚持认为：“祂是个罪犯。祂必须受到死刑的惩罚！”
那天早上晚些时候，彼拉多再次召集所有人，说：“我仔细研究了。我仍然认为耶稣没有做错什么。尽管如此，我会为了你们惩罚祂，然后释放祂。”
听到这个，人们要求彼拉多释放另一名囚犯。“释放巴拉巴！”他们说。
“那我该怎么办耶稣呢？”彼拉多问。
人们都高声喊道：“钉祂十字架！”他们越来越响地喊着：“钉祂十字架，钉祂十字架，钉祂十字架！”
最后，彼拉多带耶稣进了殿。他不想让耶稣被处死。他不相信耶稣做了任何错事。然而，他也不想因为和那么多人意见不合而使事情变得更糟。他仍然能听到人们喊着：“钉他十字架！”彼拉多让他的士兵用鞭子抽打耶稣。他们作了一顶荆棘冠戴在祂头上。士兵们一边打耶稣的脸，一边反复喊着：“犹太人的王万岁！”
然后，士兵们把耶稣带到了一个叫各各他的地方。有一大群人跟着祂，许多人为耶稣哭泣。士兵们让祂扛起沉重的十字架。耶稣感到疲倦和虚弱。十字架太重了，祂跌到了地上。士兵们抓住一个叫西门的人，让他帮着扛一段路。
当耶稣最后到各各他时，士兵们给了祂一杯掺有止痛剂的酒，但耶稣拒绝喝。他们把耶稣钉在十字架上，与另两个罪犯一起被钉死。一个在右边，一个在左边。
耶稣抬头说：“父啊，赦免他们，因为他们所做的他们不知道。”
士兵们取笑耶稣说：“如果祂是基督，就让祂救自己吧！”但耶稣不是来救自己的。祂是为了拯救我们而来的。
正午前，全地都变黑了。太阳实际上停止了照耀。黑暗持续了好几个小时。然后，耶稣大声呼喊：“父啊，我将我的灵交托给你，”然后祂断了气。突然间，殿的幕从上到下裂成了两半，地大震动。所有人都感到恐惧。一个看到这一切的士兵说：“这真是神的儿子。”
圣经说：“神爱世人，甚至将祂的独生子赐给他们，叫一切信祂的，不至灭亡，反得永远的生命。” 耶稣的死亡故事非常悲伤，但也非常重要。耶稣没有做错任何事。祂为我们死在十字架上。当我们做错事时，我们应该向耶稣求宽恕，祂会原谅我们。

JESUS AND THE CROSS
The story about Jesus on trial before Pilate and the events that led to His death on the cross.Taken from Matthew 27:11-44, Mark 15:1-41, Luke 23:1-49, and John 18:28-19:37
TOPICS:Cross, Crucifixion, Easter, Forgiveness, Jesus DURATION:Approximately 10 minutesThe chief priests and teachers of the law believed Jesus was a criminal and needed to be punished. So, early Friday morning they took Him to Pilate, who was the governor at the time. Pilate came out from his palace and asked the people, "What did this man do wrong?" |
The people replied, "He doesn't pay taxes to Caesar! He stirs up trouble with all His teachings. He even claims to be the Christ!"
Pilate looked at Jesus and asked, "Is it true what the people are saying? Are you the King of the Jews?"
"My Kingdom is not of this world, but yes, I am a king," Jesus answered.
Pilate thought about that for a while. Then, he turned to look at the crowd and said, "I don't find this man to be a criminal. He has done nothing wrong!"
But the people insisted. "He is a criminal. He must be punished by death!"
Later that morning, Pilate called all the people together again and said, "I have studied the situation well. I still find that Jesus has done nothing wrong. Nevertheless, I will punish Him for you, and then let Him go."
Upon hearing this, the people demanded that Pilate release another prisoner instead. "Release Barabbas!" they said.
"Then what should I do with Jesus?" Pilate asked.
The people all shouted, "Crucify Him!" Louder and louder they yelled, "Crucify Him, crucify Him, crucify Him!"
Finally, Pilate took Jesus into the palace. He didn't want Jesus to be put to death. He didn't believe Jesus did anything wrong. However, he also didn't want to make things worse by disagreeing with so many people. He could still hear the people shouting, "Crucify Him!"
Pilate had his soldiers beat Jesus with whips. They made a crown of thorns and put it on His head. The soldiers yelled repeatedly, "Hail king of the Jews!" as they struck Jesus in the face.
Then, the soldiers led Jesus to a place called Golgotha. A large crowd followed, many weeping for Jesus. The soldiers made Him carry a heavy wooden cross. Jesus grew tired and weak. The cross was so heavy He fell to the ground. The soldiers grabbed a man named Simon and made him carry the cross part of the way.
When Jesus finally got to the place called Golgotha, the soldiers offered Him a drink of wine mixed with something to ease the pain, but Jesus refused to drink it. They nailed Jesus to the cross, and crucified Him along with two other criminals. There was one to the right and another to the left.
Jesus looked up and said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing."
The soldiers made fun of Jesus saying, "If He is the Christ, let Him save Himself!" But Jesus didn't come to save Himself. He came to save us.
Just before noon, darkness came over the whole land. The sun actually stopped shining. It was dark for several hours. Then, Jesus cried out with a loud voice, "Father, I give to you my spirit," and He took His last breath. Suddenly, the curtain in the temple ripped from top to bottom and there was a large earthquake. Everyone was terrified. One of the soldiers who watched everything said, "Surely He was the son of God."
The Bible says, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." (John 3:16 NIV) The story of Jesus' death is very sad, but it is also very important. Jesus didn't do anything wrong. He died on the cross for us. When we do something wrong, we should ask Jesus to forgive us, and He will.
