The Road to the Resurrection

Thursday…before the resurrection

 

On the evening of the day the Church calls “Maundy Thursday” (a word meaning “command”),the last night before His dies, Jesus comes to that special time with the Twelve in the Upper Room, with one motivation driving Him…one that He wants to drive them…and us…

 

John 13:1, 34-35

1 Now before the Feast of the Passover, Jesus knowing that His hour had come that He would depart out of this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end… 34 “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 35 “By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”

 

“Love talked about can be easily turned aside, but love demonstrated is irresistible.” ~ W. Stanley Mooneyham
