What Brought About this Painting?
Occasionally when I wake up, one of my first thoughts is "what do I want to paint today"? The answer came quickly this morning - Calvary.
Also known as Golgotha, or "the Skull". This was the location of the day that changed the whole world. Matthew 27:33, Mark 15:22, Luke 23:33, John 19:17
This was the day when the man, Jesus was nailed through His hands and through His feet to a wooden cross, and He died.
No, no, no, His death was NOT the end of His story.
Three days later, He walked out of that tomb He was put in and human life changed forever.
That perfect man, who IS God's Son, was given through His death, as our sacrifice for our sin and paid the price of HIS life for us. A Holy God does not tolerate any sin, small, medium or large - it's all sin, wrong and unholy. A Holy God, a loving and righteous God, our Creator, gave us a way to be forgiven and HE paid the price. All we have to do is believe in Him.
It is by nothing that we do, it is by what He did for us. Because He loved us.
John 3:16 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.
I got to go to Israel in 1973 and see and walk in some of the places where Jesus and the 12 walked. It's an experience of a lifetime.
Easter is coming up very shortly, so the painting is a remembrance of that day, nearly 2000 years ago.
And Jesus said, He is coming back again. It has been 2000 years since He said that, so I have a feeling with the way things are in this world now, when Jesus says He is coming back quickly and soon - He sure will be.
Are you ready when He does?
