Luke 23:34 (NKJV) 34 Then Jesus said, \u201cFather, forgive them, for they do not know what they do<\/span>.\u201d And they divided His garments and cast lots.<\/p>\n

There are many profound moments in the word of God. It is full of them. It is, after all, the word of God!<\/p>\n

But the verse above is one that we must grasp, as Jesus spoke the words, Father Forgive Them.<\/p>\n

His ability to speak these words about the ones who brutally beat Him and hung Him on a cross to die before the public eye proves beyond the shadow of a doubt that He was, in fact, the Son of God; Immanuel, God in the flesh.<\/p>\n

The fact that He could speak these words was not just noteworthy to those who witnessed His death. It was life changing.<\/p>\n

Even now, many centuries later, the effects of those words reverberate into eternity, as men and women who learn of Christ read them and hear them, and their hearts are forever changed by them.<\/p>\n

As humans, it is common for the effects of words like these to wear off, to grow dull in our hearts as time passes. So, it does us good to be reminded from time to time.<\/p>\n

And as Jesus walked among us for His short 33 years, He taught us that as He walked, so must we walk.<\/p>\n

May we learn, grow, and mature to the point where we also may be able to speak similar words as we face trials and persecution for our faith, just as Stephen, following in the footsteps of Jesus as he was stoned to death.<\/p>\n

Acts 7:59-60 (NKJV) 59 And they stoned Stephen as he was calling on God and saying, \u201cLord Jesus, receive my spirit.\u201d 60 Then he knelt down and cried out with a loud voice, \u201cLord, do not charge them with this sin.\u201d And when he had said this, he fell asleep.<\/p>\n
