P. 188
For it is written in John 19:1 − 3; Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him.
And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on
him a purple robe, And said, Hail, King of the Jews! And they smote him with their
hands.
It should be noted that Almighty God used the Roman soldiers for two specific
reasons during the crucifixion that day.
1. The Lord Jesus could not die on the cross that day without being crowned as the
the King of the Jews. The Roman soldiers first had to make the crown of thorns. That
confirmed the Lord Jesus statement when He said; Thou sayest that I am a king. To
this end was I born. The Lord Jesus was born as the King of the Jews; but the lord
Jesus had to be crowned as the King of the Jews before His death.
2. Then the Roman soldiers had to place the crown of thorns on the Lord Jesus
Christ’s Head. When the tips of the thorns pierced the skin on the Lord’s head, the
sinless blood of the Lord touched the tips of the thorns, thus the curse on the earth
from Adam and Eve’s sin was broken.
3. When the Lord Jesus said “It Is Finished” and gave up the ghost, the skies above
the Lord’s Cross immediately darkened and rain began to fall. Then there were
several lightening strikes and loud thundering across the darkened skies. The
ground around the bottom of the cross was shaken by small earthquake, and the
Lord Jesus Christ’s blood along with the rainwater started to drain downward into
the ground and the rock toward the Ark of the Covenant, that was placed there by
the religious Jews to protect it from the their enemies.
Then Lord Jesus Christ’s blood along with the rainwater began to drip through the
open tunnel way onto the Mercy Seat of the Ark of the Covenant. Only Almighty
God could have orchestrated this historical event of the Lord Jesus Christ’s blood
Dripping onto the Mercy Seat for the eternal forgiveness of mankind’s sin. Amen!
Chapter 20
The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark,
2
unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre. Then she
runneth, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved,
and saith unto them, They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre, and we
know not where they have laid him. Peter therefore went forth, and that other

disciple, and came to the sepulchre. So they ran both together: and the other
5
disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre. And he stooping down,
and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in. Then cometh
6
Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes
lie, And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but
7
wrapped together in a place by itself. Then went in also that other disciple, which

came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and believed. For as yet they knew not the
