Old Llantrisant Hill
- Thoughts in the early hours of the morning
- The Lord's leading
- This passage - the robber who is crucified with the Lord Jesus Christ
- The robber
- Of the Jewish nation
- Would have grown up knowing of the Messiah
- Had fallen into serious trouble
- At the point of execution for his crimes
- Humanly speaking - no hope
- In God's providence hope was just a short time away
- He was to have a super natural revelation
- He was without God and without hope in the face of a terrible death
- He heard the pharisees and the scribes mocking Jesus on the cross
- This robber was in the best place he could find himself - face-to-face with the Son of God
- What happened in his life to bring him to God?
- His arrest and sentence - at the right time
- What a coincidence!
- The appointed time to meet Jesus
- When were these arrangements made?
- The temporal vs the eternal
- The appointed time to meet Jesus
- What was happening as he hung on the cross?
- He saw how the Lord Jesus reacted
- He heard Jesus' gracious words of forgiveness
- Something spiritual was happening within this robber - the other robber and the pharisees heard what Jesus said
- Jesus' words were having an impact on him
- The robber was seeing beyond Jesus' physical appearance
- The Holy Spirit was working in his heart
- God has been gracious to you and me
- God has loved us
- God loves us so much that He gave His only Son
- This robber has been brought to know Jesus Christ
- Hebrews – What he heard was mixed with faith
- God is so gracious
- Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ
