Christ in the Garden with Mary Magdalene

A few nice jesus christ images I found:

Christ in the Garden with Mary Magdalene

Image by Lawrence OP

"Jesus said to her, "Mary." She turned and said to him in Hebrew, "Rabboni!" (which means Teacher).

Jesus said to her, "Do not hold me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brethren and say to them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God."

Mary Magdalene went and said to the disciples, "I have seen the Lord"; and she told them that he had said these things to her."

– John 20:16-18, which is part of today’s Gospel for Easter Tuesday.

Jesus on the cross

Image by –Tico–
Jesus is dying on the cross and Peter is down the hill comforting Mary Magdalene when he hears Jesus’ faint voice, "Peter. . . Peter. . ."

"I must go and help my Savior," he said and went up the hill, only to be beaten and kicked back down by the Roman centurions guarding the cross. But soon he hears, "Peter. . . Peter," in even fainter tones and he just cannot ignore the call. Peter limps up the hill, leans a ladder against the cross, and gets halfway up when the centurions knock over the ladder, beats him brutally, and tosses him back down the hill.

Again he hears, "Peter. . . Peter. . ." ever fainter, and again, he cannot refuse his Lord. In pain, he slowly staggers up the hill, drags himself up the ladder, and finally gets even with Christ’s face. Just as the centurions are reaching for the ladder, Jesus says, "Peter. . . Peter. . . look, I can see your house from here."

P.S. If you are a Christian, you feel offended and you are mad at me because of that, I must remind you about the prophet Elijah relentlessly mocking Baals prophets (1 Kings 18:27). This happened apparently with the tacit approval of God. Surely you don’t want to claim one law for yourselves and another for the rest, right?

Peace, out.
