FOREMAN Hon Two Men Died Lesson for March 22,1964 B«ckfr»«nd Scriptart: Liuke 23:S2>47. Eeadiiipt Luke 2t:44>56. Death came to three, men on Ae same afternoon. We cannot say that “as it must to all men, death came to these.” for the tfiree died by cruel violence. They died, in fact, by being ex ecuted. It was a form of death that was meted out only to the most degraded of mcn-traltors, slaves, the worst of criminals. The punishment was crucifix ion, We have been so long ac customed to glamorized pic tures of the cross that we forget how horrible It was. Naked men were fastened with nails to their crosses. No fatal blow was sinick the men were just left tt die. Gradual loss of blood would bring on a torturing thirst, and death was slow in coming. Victims often took two or three days to die. and most men would go Insane before the end came. The two men crucified tn the right and left of Jesus were marked as bad men. and would be considered dangerous in any country at any time. They were not “thieves” in the 20th cen tury meaning of that word. The Greek word for them means robber, bandit. They were the kind of men who do not hesitate to commit murders in order to rob their victims. The police and the public breathe more easily when such men are ex ecuted. One of these men died as he had lived, his hand against every man's. Hung up there to die, he kept his bitter heart to the end. Whoever had condemned him to PMCED10INK->mr/ WHUE ‘'APPLIANCES TELEVISION • STEREO Amazing Oven cleans itself.. electrically! • Automatic Sensi-TempD Unit • Built-in Styling • Dark Coppertone, Mix-or- Match Colors, or White HARD TO BELIEVE?

So he turned against Jesus and picking up what the mob was shouting, he spoke mocking words to the dying Jesus. Rid icule can hurt more deeply than harsh words and curses. The bandit’s partner on the other side joined for a while In the jeers (Matthew and Mark both recall that the two men taunted Jesus) but changed his mind; this bandit kept his bitterness and died in it. The other victims were just as dead, when sunset came, as this angry outcast. But they came to their end In a quite different way. Consider the other bandit. He was just as bad a man as his partner on the far cross; he admitted guilt for both of them acknowledged that what they suffered, they deserved. Somehow he knew that the man on the central cross did not belong there. Whether this, bandit had ever heard of Jesus, or seen him before we do not know. But criminal though he was, he had a clearer insight into the situation than all the high priests. He has done no thing, wrong, he said. And then he says a strange thing to Jesus. Remember me when you come in ycRir kingdom! he said. Jesus answers the faith with a promise: Today you will be with me in Paradise. Just as simple as making a lunch date. Under that promise he died, not in bitterness like his partner in crime, but in hope and faith. Christians from then to now die as other men die, yet not as other men in spirit. For every ChrlstiRn dies under a promise: “I am the Life.” All sorts of gloomy things are said about death, and we are supposed to feel bitter about it. But Christians know better. Grace Noll Crowell wrote a poem about death, and she called it “This is His night.” Saint Paul, first Christians to put on record his thoughts about death calls it a departure, going to “be with the Lord.” Death is not merely what so many millions think it is, the end of all things. It is the end of a great deal, to be sure; but It is actually a commence ment. Death ends many things but it does not end you. If that flrst bandit’s spirit survived death-and we believe It did- what kind of future would he have? If the second man’s spirit survived-and Jesus as sured him it would-what kind of future would he have? Luke tells the story; he leaves us to draw our own conclusions.
