Sermon Title: “Father Forgive Them”
Scripture: Luke 23:34
Synopsis: Three groups of people mocked Jesus while He was hanging on the cross: the religious leaders,
the Roman soldiers, and a criminal. Jesus responded by fulfilling His own teachings: turning the other
cheek, loving His enemies, praying for those who persecuted Him. The cross reveals God’s self-giving
love: forgiveness for the oppressors, forgiveness for the mockers, and forgiveness for the wrongdoers.
