In life and in death, Jesus? words were powerful and meaningful. Despite the serious effort and increased pain required for Jesus to speak as he hung on the cross, Jesus spoke seven "final words"--statements that have much to teach us about Jesus, his Father, and ourselves: Father Forgive Them, Behold Your Son ? Behold Your Mother, My God, Why Have You Forsaken Me?, Today You Will Be with Me in Paradise, I Thirst, It Is Finished, Into Your Hands I Commit My Spirit.--From Amazon.
