On this most solemn day, we behold Christ crucified—our Savior lifted high upon the cross. In John 19:25–37, the Gospel writer gives us a deeply personal and eyewitness account of Jesus’ final moments. John stood at the foot of the cross. He saw the blood and water flow. He heard Christ’s final words and watched Him breathe His last.
“John, The Gospel Writer” draws us into that moment—not as distant readers, but as those who have been called to witness and believe. Through John’s eyes, we see the fulfillment of Scripture, the depth of Christ’s love, and the beginning of the Church’s life flowing from His pierced side.
📖 Key Takeaways
John’s Gospel gives us a firsthand witness to Jesus' death.
Scripture is fulfilled in every detail, down to the last breath.
From Jesus’ side flows life for the Church—blood and water, Word and Sacrament.
