John 19: It is finished

Read John 19:1-42 before you meet.

In a few lines

In the WEB's John, the words crucify and cross come only in this chapter. Pilate says three times, “I find no basis for a charge against him” (18:38; 19:4, 19:6). And in the Greek, the finished of “seeing that all things were now finished” (19:28) is the same word as Jesus's “It is finished!” (19:30).

The verse to carry

“When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, “It is finished!” Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.”

John 19:30

To talk about

  1. 1. Pilate brought Jesus out and said, "Behold, the man!" (19:5). As you read this chapter, what do you see when you look at Jesus?

  2. 2. Jesus said, "It is finished!" (19:30). What do those words stir in you as you finish reading the chapter?

  3. 3. John says the one who saw "tells the truth, that you may believe" (19:35). What in this chapter helps you believe, and what is still hard for you?
