SHILOH MISSIONARY BAPTIST CHURCH

We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. Romans 6:4

WHEN LOVE SPEAKS Pastor Patterson and Pastor Parker with the Associate Ministers of Shiloh will lead us in worship that focuses on the seven last statements that Jesus spoke during his final hours on the cross. These powerful words unlock the full meaning and amazing blessings of Je-sus’ last words before his resurrection - words of forgiveness, assurance, love, trust and so much more. Minister of Music Robert Heartwell and the Shiloh Music Ministry will lead in music as we hear, understand, and respond to the SEVEN GREATEST WORDS OF LOVE ever spoken.

1. The Word of Forgiveness “Father Forgive Them” 2. The Word of Assurance “Today You Will Be With Me in Paradise” 3. The Word of Love “Behold Your Mother . . . Behold Your Son” 4. The Word of Substitution “My God, My God, Why Have You Forsaken Me” 5. The Word of Humanity “I Thirst” 6. The Word of Victory “It Is Finished” 7. The Word of Trust “Into Your Hands”

But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punish-But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punish-But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punish-ment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed. ment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed. ment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.
