Matthew 18:34

Jesus Christ experience all kinds of unfair and unjust treatment, even to the point of a wrongful death. Yet in his final hour, he forgave the mocking thief on the other cross and his executioners.

We’ll explore how Jesus embodies each of these names and is just as relevant for us today as when He walked the earth.
