[Mark 15]
A clash of two kingdoms.
God against Caesar.
What shall be done with the Messiah?
Crucify him!
Mocked and beaten,
led out to slaughter.
The cross is heavy.
The Messiah hanging
Between two thieves.
Insults hurled.
Alone and forsaken.
Why God?
A sponge soaked with wine,
A cry-filled last breath.
The curtain is torn.
His body is broken,
His blood is poured.
A body wrapped in linen
Placed in a tomb.
The stone is set.
Holy Week continues…
