In this Bible passage, while Jesus is being crucified, we see a crowd standing around watching, the religious and political leaders scoffing, and the soldiers mocking. And after this we see one of the criminals join in with judging and mocking. Like that criminal, do you think that Christians do this kind of thing still today? Why or why not?
In what areas of your life are you currently displaying a “skeptical mockery,” or find yourself being a “reactive fool?”
Why is it so hard for us to admit, confess, own, and repent of our sin?
Talk about how Jesus acted towards both of the criminals on the cross? What did Jesus’ words and heart display?
Close in prayer by having everyone go around in a circle thanking and praising Jesus for what He’s done for us on the cross.
