The causes of death were crucifixion, extreme exhaustion, severe torture and loss of blood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jesus Christ, a descendant of Abraham, was also a member of the house of David.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He was the Son of the late Joseph, a carpenter of Nazareth, and Mary, his devoted Mother. He&nbsp;was born in a stable in the city of Bethlehem, Judea<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Survivors include: his&nbsp;mother Mary, his faithful Apostles, numerous disciples and many other followers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jesus was self-educated and spent most of his adult life working as a Teacher. Jesus also occasionally worked as a<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jesus was most noted for telling parables about His Father&#8217;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&nbsp;&nbsp;His death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This written obituary caught my attention &nbsp;and i just had to rewrite a bit and share to Pennies. &nbsp;My kids all liked the candies, eggs and the new beginnings of Spring. &nbsp;Never forget:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Easter is coming &nbsp;celebrating&nbsp;&nbsp;the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. . He arose!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you attend church? Have a big Easter dinner with family?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Attend any &nbsp;special services or sing Easter songs?
