Jesus
willingly went to the cross as a falsely accused wrongdoer to pay for the sins
of the world. Jesus was beaten, spit upon, mocked, stripped naked and nailed to
a cross. Christ was crucified. All this He endured willingly for our salvation
and his loves for us.

We may meditate on the Passion of Christ by reflecting on his Last Seven
Words on the Cross or by a devotion known as the Way of the Cross.
The Passion, Crucifixion, and Death of Jesus Christ.
The fourteen stations of the Cross.
(1) Pilate condemns Jesus to death.
(2) Jesus takes up his Cross.
(3) Jesus falls the first time.
(4) Jesus meets his sorrowful mother Mary.
(5) Simon helps Jesus carry the cross.
(6) Veronica cleans his face.
(7) Jesus falls the second time.
(8) Jesus consoles the women of Jerusalem.
(9) Jesus falls the third time.
(10) Jesus is stripped of his garments.
(11) Jesus Christ is nailed to the cross.
(12) Jesus Christ dies on the cross.
(13) Jesus Christ is taken down from the cross.
(14) Jesus Christ is laid in the tomb.
Philippians 2:5-8
5 In your
relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:
6 Who,
being in very nature God,
did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
7 rather, he made himself nothing
by taking the very nature of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
8 And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death —
even death on a cross!
