The one upon the cross was the firstborn of all creation.

Pastoral ministry poses challenges in communicating theological concepts, discerning your call, and finding competency in Christ.

The burial of Jesus has significance in and of itself as it displays the Father's approval of Jesus Christ and his work.

The flow of blood and water from Jesus' side further reveals our Lord's humanity, death, and efficacy of his propitiatory offering.

That Jesus' bones were not broken reveals the Father's regard for his Son, preventing further indignity.
