Book The Seven Last Words from the Cross

Download or read book The Seven Last Words from the Cross written by Fleming Rutledge and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2004-11-22 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For at least a century, at special three-hour services on Good Friday, it has been the custom in many churches to reflect on the Seven Last Words of Jesus from the Cross. In this tradition, Fleming Rutledge here presents seven eloquent meditations on these final sayings of Jesus. Rutledge links the sayings from the cross with contemporary events and concerns, but also incorporates recent biblical scholarship and modern questions about the death of Christ, particularly in light of Mel Gibson's film The Passion of the Christ. Rutledge shows how each word or saying from the Cross affords an opportunity for readers to gain a deeper understanding of the horrific death suffered by Jesus. Intending for this book to lead readers into a genuine devotional experience, Rutledge has made every effort to evoke and preserve the contemplative atmosphere of the three-hour Good Friday memorial. The book includes frequent references to hymns associated with this special day, and each meditation ends with an appropriate hymn text for personal prayer and reflection.

Book The Seven Sayings of Jesus on the Cross

Download or read book The Seven Sayings of Jesus on the Cross written by Murray J. Harris and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-02-18 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who of us can possibly imagine the excruciating pain of being crucified? But further, who would imagine that in the midst of this ghastly punishment that brings on unrelenting headaches and mental disorientation, a crucified man would actually give thought to the needs of others? This book explores in detail the nature of crucifixion and then invites the reader to listen in stunned silence to the amazing seven sayings of Jesus of Nazareth while hanging on the cross, as he focuses his attention on others in the first three sayings, and only then on his own distressing situation. His last four sayings give expression to his utter spiritual and physical anguish and conclude with a cry of victory and then a cry in which he commits himself to God.

Book The Seven Last Words of Christ Explained

Download or read book The Seven Last Words of Christ Explained written by Fulton J. Sheen and published by . This book was released on 2023-12-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enjoy nine (9) of Fulton J. Sheen's most treasured books on the Seven Last Words brought together into this one special collection. During the 1930s and '40s, Fulton Sheen was the featured speaker on The Catholic Hour radio broadcast, and millions of listeners heard his radio addresses each week. His topics ranged from politics and the economy to philosophy and man's eternal pursuit of happiness. Possessing a burning zeal to dispel the myths about Our Lord and His Church, Sheen gave a series of powerful presentations on Christ's Passion and His seven last words from the Cross. As a Scripture scholar, Archbishop Sheen knew full well the power contained in preaching Christ crucified. With St. Paul, he could say, "For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified" (1 Cor. 2:2). During his last recorded Good Friday address in 1979, Archbishop Sheen spoke of having given this type of reflection on the subject of Christ's seven last words from the cross "for the fifty-eighth consecutive time." Whether from the young priest in Peoria, Illinois, the university professor in Washington, D.C., or the bishop in New York, Sheen's messages were sure to make an indelible mark on his listeners. Given their importance and the impact they had on society, it seemed appropriate to bring together in this anthology some of Archbishop Sheen's meditations on the Seven Last Words Our Blessed Lord spoke from the Cross on Calvary. The meditations contained in this book are taken from several books and articles written by Sheen between 1933 and 1945. The Seven Last Words. (New York: Century, 1933) The Seven Last Words and the Our Father. (Huntington, Indiana: Our Sunday Visitor 1935) Calvary and the Mass. (New York: P. J. Kenedy and Sons,1936) The Cross and the Beatitudes. (New York: P. J. Kenedy and Sons,1937) The Rainbow of Sorrow. (New York: P. J. Kenedy and Sons, 1938) Victory over Vice. (New York: P. J. Kenedy and Sons, 1939) The Seven Virtues. (New York: P. J. Kenedy and Sons, 1940) Seven Words to the Cross. (New York: P. J. Kenedy and Sons, 1944) Seven Words of Jesus and Mary. (New York: P. J. Kenedy and Sons,1945) These mediations have been selected to provide nine unique reflections for study and meditation on the Seven Last Words. First Meditation - A reflection on the words spoken by Christ from the Cross. Second Meditation - A reflection on a passage from the Lord's Prayer. Third Meditation - A reflection on a part of the Mass. Fourth Meditation - A reflection on one of the Beatitudes. Fifth Meditation - A reflection about sorrow and suffering. Sixth Meditation - A reflection addressing one of the seven deadly sins. Seventh Meditation - A reflection on the virtues. Eighth Meditation - A reflection on dealing with individuals who reject the Church and Christ's teachings. Ninth Meditation - A reflection on the unity of Jesus and Mary. As the reader ponders these reflections, they might have to pause for a moment or two over a sentence that is full of deep meaning that stirs the heart. He might also find that Archbishop Sheen has repeated certain lines throughout these reflections to drive home a point or an important theme, as any good teacher would do. Archbishop Sheen's dynamic personality combined with his brilliant mind, tireless pen, and eloquent voice has made him one of the best-known figures in the world. His radio and television appearances have been phenomenally successful and are still viewed today. His books and magazine articles continue to gratify and attract a boundless circle of readers.

Bob Beth Leonard offers a thought-provoking look in to the loving heart of our Blessed Mother.

Her thoughtful insight leads us straight to the heart of Mary leading us closer to Jesus. - Christine Moss Creator, co-host and author of Awaken to the B.E.S.T. The Seven Sorrows of Mary is a daily prayer that was handed down to us from Saint Bridget. Using these sorrows as our template, we find them in the New Testament writings and then trace them to Old Testament prophecies and accountings. You will be amazed at what Mary teaches us as we delve into the Word of God to uncover the clues to her mysterious sorrows. On the surface, Marys sorrows may seem like an exercise in remembering our Lords sacrifice, but Mary teaches us so much more through her perfect humility and unwavering faith. Our study will reveal the history and purpose of the sorrows and how we can use these teachings to aid in our daily struggles, more deeply root our position with Christ, and enhance our own Catholic tradition.
