  JESUS'  LAST  WORDS?

  Everything about Jesus is controversial. Nothing is more controversial than
 what's been written in the gospels themselves as pertaining to his very last
 words.

  In Matt. 27-46 - Jesus' last words are given to us as follows. - "My God,
 My God, why did you abandon me?"

  In Mark 15-34 - Jesus' last words are given to us as follows. - "My God,
 My God, why did you abandon me?"

  So far, so good. - HOWEVER,

  In Luke  23- 45 - Jesus' last words are given to us as follows. - "Father!
 In your hands, I place my spirit."

  We are faced with a dilemma now. - But wait, there's more.

  In John 19-30 - Jesus' last words are given to us as follows. - "It is
 finished."

  Now the dilemma deepens. Now we find ourselves with a multiple
choice decision on our hands. As to the very last words spoken in this
world by our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ.

  What are we to think about this blatant discrepancy?  - It's right there in
the gospels themselves!

                     ----------------------------------------

  As an awakened soul, the choice is a no-brainer. The question though is.
 WHY do we have to make a choice in the first place?

  And when we make that choice, does it affect the rejected gospels entire
 versions of the life, death and resurrection of Jesus? - You bet it does!

                     ----------------------------------------

  As a disciple of the Son of man, I for one, could never follow Jesus if
 I believed, even for a nano-second, that his very last words were, as
declared in the gospels of Matthew and Mark. - The reasoning's simple.
 Since Jesus had fore-knowledge of all events and knew where he was
 going, - He could hardly have uttered such an absurdity.

                     ----------------------------------------

  Furthermore, as an awakened soul, I can not accept Luke's version of
 what Jesus' last words were either. - Again, The reasoning's simple. Jesus
 is spirit, and like Jesus said, - "GOD is Spirit." - Ask yourself,  Does God
 have a spirit?  Jesus said, " Believe me when I say that I am in the Father
 and the FATHER is in me." JESUS IS SPIRIT. He doesn't have one.

                     -----------------------------------------

  Lastly, we come to John's version of what Jesus' last words were. - In John,
 we find what we would have expected our saviour to say. "IT IS FINISHED."
 His mission in the physical world flawlessly completed.

  Just as JESUS doesn't have a spirit because he is spirit, the same applies to
 the true-man, SOUL.

      Always remember, you do not possess a soul, YOU ARE A SOUL.
