The Murder of Jesus

A Study of How Jesus Christ Died

De: John F. MacArthur

Narrado por: Maurice England

The pieces are in place. The curtain rises for the final act. God is about to die.

An unprecedented conspiracy of injustice, cruelty, and religious and political interests sentenced a man guilty of no crimes to the most barbaric method of execution ever devised. The victim was no mere man. Jesus was God in the flesh. The Creator of life died.

How did such a thing come to be? Who were the onlookers, the players, the fakes, frauds, and heroes? What was it like in the Upper Room that night, in the shadows of Gethsemane, or in the Praetorium awaiting Pilate's verdict? What is the meaning of the last words Jesus uttered as He gasped for breath on the cross? What if all the facts you now so well could come alive in your mind and heart as a living story, rather than as a 2000-year-old ancient account?

By piecing together the narrative from the perspective of the participants, John MacArthur invites you to relive the most awesome injustice in the history of man, the unparalleled triumph of the sovereignty of God, and the passion of Christ.

God's grace and forgiveness.

A true inspirational read for followers of Christ. Our sins were completely forgiven by His death on that cross.

He died for me.

I have listened to the audible version three times and I find new treasures during each session.

Jesus Christ is Lord!

He is the way, the truth, and the life!!! Believe on him and be saved!!!

Outstanding at context.

MacArthur is the best at setting the stage and providing context for what we read in the scriptures. He consistently answers the question: Why do they say it that way? or, Why did they choose that word? I don't his writing very helpful.

Wonderful!

This book goes into great detail the lives of all the major participants in the life, death and resurrection of Christ. It takes the ancient and makes it very real and relatable by taking you into the text moment by moment.
