Cork Opera House
April, 2003
We took a stand so that people could learn about the True Jesus - who loved this wicked and sin-cursed world! |
 |
About 300 - 400 people went into the performance, and most took leaflets that would help them understand their need for Jesus |

Enjoying a great snack and coffee afterwards! |
Mock
Him
like Herod did?
Ignore
Him
like Pilate did?
Make
money off of His name
like
Judas did?
Crucify
Him again,
like
the crowd did?
Just
WHO was Jesus?
Everybody
has their own expectations of Jesus Christ. Pilate expected Jesus to be a King
who would fight for control of Palestine. Judas expected a leader who would make
him rich. Herod wanted an entertainer. The crowd wanted a rebel. The whole world
got it wrong!
Even
today, most everyone wants a Superstar; a Genie; a Knight in shining armour.
But
what this world got was a Saviour, who would allow sinful men to hate
Him, and kill Him on the cross. Why?
Was
it all a play, or was it all an unfortunate tragedy? Can it be trivialized by
just calling Jesus a good man who was misunderstood?
Jesus
is God Almighty, come down to earth in flesh like any of us. He had no halo, and
He felt pain, but He never doubted who He was, and He never hesitated from His
mission to save YOU and ME from hell!
Jesus
said plainly, I am the Son of God
John 10:36, and I came down from heaven, not to
do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. John 6:38.
What
Does it Matter?
Misunderstanding
who Jesus is, is serious business! He that
believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son
shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. John 3:36
Who is a liar but he that denieth that
Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
1John 2:22
What
Will You Do With Jesus?
Believe
on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved.
Acts 16:31
1.
Repent.
That means agree with God that you are a sinner, and deserve hell. All
have sinned Romans 3:23. God
now commandeth all men every where to repent. Acts
17:30.
2.
Believe Jesus Christ
is all you need to be saved from hell. Jesus said, I
am the way
no
man cometh unto the father, but by me
John 14:6
3.
Then you can FREELY accept the gift of salvation
- eternal life comes only from Jesus Himself. "The
gift of God is eternal life, through Jesus Christ our Lord"
(Romans 6:23). Jesus died to give you the forgiveness of your sins. Talk to Him
in prayer right now, and accept the forgiveness that He offers you for ALL your
sins.
Don't
be so proud to miss this opportunity! Hell
is full of people who trusted everything but Christ!
