CRUCIFICTION OF JESUS

A Harmony of His Sacrifice for Us


The following is a harmony of the events that led up to the death of our Lord Jesus Christ on the Cross. I hope you can use this in your Bible Study, and I pray that it helps you grow as a believer. Once we fully understand what Jesus went through for our salvation we will better appreciate that free Gift He has so graciously given us.
