OBITUARIES
JESUS CHRIST
33 AD
Jesus Christ, 33, of Nazareth, died Friday on Mount Calvary, also known as Col Ba of Apostle Judas,
The cause of death was crucifixion by the Romans, by order of the Ruler Pontius Pilate. The causes of death were crucifixion, extreme exhaustion, severe torture and loss of blood.
Jesus Christ, a descendant of Abraham, was also a member of the house of David.
He was the Son of the late Joseph, a carpenter of Nazareth, and Mary, his devoted Mother. He was born in a stable in the city of Bethlehem, Judea
Survivors include: his mother Mary, his faithful Apostles, numerous disciples and many other followers.
Jesus was self-educated and spent most of his adult life working as a Teacher. Jesus also occasionally worked as a
Medical Doctor and it is reported that he healed many prior to his death, shared good news, healing, the sick, touching the lonely, feeding the hungry and helping the poor.
Jesus was most noted for telling parables about His Father’s Kingdom and performing miracles, such as feeding over 5,000 people with only live loaves of bread and twe fish, and healing a man who was born blind. On the day before His death, He held a Last Supper, celebrating the Passover Feast, at which He foretold of His death.
The body was quickly buried in a stone grave, which was donated by Joseph of Arimathea, a loyal friend of the family. By order of Pontius Pilate, a boulder was rolled in front of the Tomb. Roman soldiers were put on guard.
In lieu of flowers, the family has requested that everyone try to live as Jesus did and believe in Him. Donations may be sent to anyone in need.
This written obituary caught my attention and i just had to rewrite a bit and share to Pennies. My kids all liked the candies, eggs and the new beginnings of Spring. Never forget:
Easter is coming celebrating the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. . He arose!
Do you attend church? Have a big Easter dinner with family?
Attend any special services or sing Easter songs? Let me know and I’ll give you A Penny for Your Thoughts.
