John 19:28-37, HCSB
28 After this, when Jesus knew that everything was now accomplished that the Scripture might be fulfilled, He said, “I’m thirsty!”
29 A jar full of sour wine was sitting there; so they fixed a sponge full of sour wine on hyssop and held it up to His mouth.
30 When Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” Then bowing His head, He gave up His spirit.
Jesus’ Side Pierced
31 Since it was the preparation day, the Jews did not want the bodies to remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special day). They requested that Pilate have the men’s legs broken and that their bodies be taken away.
32 So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man and of the other one who had been crucified with Him.
33 When they came to Jesus, they did not break His legs since they saw that He was already dead.
34 But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and at once blood and water came out.
35 He who saw this has testified so that you also may believe. His testimony is true, and he knows he is telling the truth.
36 For these things happened so that the Scripture would be fulfilled: Not one of His bones will be broken.
37 Also, another Scripture says: They will look at the One they pierced.
For His Glory!

Sermon Text for February 26, 2012 (Deuteronomy 34:1-9)
Join us this Sunday as we continue in our series on the book of Deuteronomy. This week's text is . . .
Deuteronomy 34:1-9, HCSB
1 Then Moses went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, which faces Jericho, and the LORD showed him all the land: Gilead as far as Dan,
2 all of Naphtali, the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, all the land of Judah as far as the Mediterranean Sea,
3 the Negev, and the region from the Valley of Jericho, the City of Palms, as far as Zoar.
4 The LORD then said to him, “This is the land I promised Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, ‘I will give it to your descendants.’ I have let you see it with your own eyes, but you will not cross into it.”
5 So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, as the LORD had said.
6 He buried him in the valley in the land of Moab facing Beth-peor, and no one to this day knows where his grave is.
7 Moses was 120 years old when he died; his eyes were not weak, and his vitality had not left him.
8 The Israelites wept for Moses in the plains of Moab 30 days. Then the days of weeping and mourning for Moses came to an end.
9 Joshua son of Nun was filled with the spirit of wisdom because Moses had laid his hands on him. So the Israelites obeyed him and did as the LORD had commanded Moses.
For His Glory!

This week's text is . . .
Deuteronomy 30:15-20, HCSB
15 See, today I have set before you life and prosperity, death and adversity.
16 For I am commanding you today to love the LORD your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commands, statutes, and ordinances, so that you may live and multiply, and the LORD your God may bless you in the land you are entering to possess.
17 But if your heart turns away and you do not listen and you are led astray to bow down to other gods and worship them,
18 I tell you today that you will certainly perish and will not live long in the land you are entering to possess across the Jordan.
19 I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you today that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. Choose life so that you and your descendants may live,
20 love the LORD your God, obey Him, and remain faithful to Him. For He is your life, and He will prolong your life in the land the LORD swore to give to your fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”
