We come to [esvignore]John 19:23-30[/esvignore] where the Apostle directs our attention to the scene at the foot of the cross. There, three prophecies are fulfilled in short order. Each of these prophecies confirms the identity of the One who hangs above, and each one adds burning coals to the heads of the leaders of the people who refuse to listen to evidence. This is a sermon about evidence and our responsibility to listen to the Spirit-inspired Word of God (be they prophets or apostles). We are exhorted to use the scriptures chiefly in our evangelism and apologetics, and for nursing ourselves from sickness back to Spiritual health.
