“Truly This Was the Son of God” (Matthew 27:45-54)
BIG IDEA: The death of Jesus isn’t a normal death because Jesus isn’t a normal
man.
*Six unique features of Christ’s final hours:
1) The supernatural darkness. (v.45)
2) The sudden dereliction. (v.46)
3) The strange drink. (v.47-49)
4) The surrendering death. (v.50)
5) The symbolic drama. (v.51-53)
6) The subsequent declaration. (v.54)
