Image
Crucifixion was an ancient method of execution in which the victim's hands and feet were bound and nailed to a cross . There was a strong social stigma associated with crucifixion, a punishment reserved for traitors, captive armies, slaves and the worst of criminals. Detailed descriptions of crucifixions are few, perhaps because secular historians could not bear to describe the gruesome events of this horrible practice. However, archaeological finds from first century Palestine have shed a great deal of light on this early form of death penalty.   Four basic structures or types of crosses were used for crucifixions: Crux Simplex Image: Justus Lipsius (1547-1606) Crux Simplex was a single upright stake or post upon which the victim was tied or impaled.

Embracing God-Fearing Behavior

By -
 The life and teachings of Jesus Christ are a profound source of inspiration for countless people worldwide. Central to Christ's message is the concept of God-fearing behavior, which he exemplified through his actions, teachings, and unwavering devotion to God the Father. In this article, we explore how Christ's life serves as a model for those seeking to embrace God-fearing behavior, regardless of their religious affiliations. Submission to the Divine Will: At the heart of Christ's God-fearing behavior was his submission to the divine will of God. In the Garden of Gethsemane, he prayed, "Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done" (Luke 22:42, NIV). This act of surrender illustrates the essence of God-fearing behavior – placing one's trust in God's plan and purpose. Love and Compassion: Christ's teachings emphasized love and compassion for all. He urged his followers to love their neig...
