Reading from The Gospel According Matthew 27:27-44 (NLT) ~The Soldiers Mock Jesus, The Crucifixion~ Scripture reading followed by discussion. The mockery of the kingdoms of the world, and the greatness of the Kingdom of God. Jesus, at His lowest, recalls how the least will be the greatest. Human nature to mock the downfall of those we don’t like or agree with as though you are justified in your criticism. Proverbs 24:17. Jesus didn't just save others.
