25.04.17 “Maundy Thursday” (John 13-17)

 

For many people around the world today is known as “Maundy Thursday”, a melancholy day of reflection. 2000 years ago, Jesus and His disciples had been, for many weeks, looking forward to this weekend which was Passover for them and many thousands of Jews who had traveled to Jerusalem. The Holy Spirit led all four Gospel writers to give us distinctive insights into those last days of Jesus’ earthly journey.  I invite you to journey with me today as we draw from those who were with Him and follow some of the significant events which led Jesus and His disciples through that final week; up into that upper room for the Passover meal; then to the garden of Gethsemane; and finally, Golgotha and Jesus’ crucifixion.
