Him and kept a crown of thorns
on His head. And when they
struck the head, blood was falling
from His head as flood with
speed (bhalabhala means poured
like water)
19 They put a staff in His right 1
hand and mocked Him who was
judged wrongly. And knelt down
salute Him as “Hail, king”
20 The sin, which his son comm-
itted from the beginning of the
world and its results were rolled
away.’
21 The terrible cross was laid on
Him. They make the king carry
it in the streets. He was brought
to a place called ‘Golgotha’
22 So the king suffered outside 2
the city gate as the prophets said.
He was taken out.
23 His legs and hands were tied
very seriously to the wood with
nailed. His cloth was taken out
and He was crucified.
24 The king had no beauty 3 or
majesty to attract us to Him. He
was despised and rejected by
men, a man of sorrows and fami-
liar with suffering.
25 He was broken and beaten
as a bruised reed and smoking
flax 4 . When He opened His mo-

uth and asked for thirst was
given the bitter wine for drinking.
26 He suffered the terrible puni-
shment which no one could be-
ar. He closed His eyes by saying
it is finished 5 . All people had
beaten their breasts by saying
‘Alas, Alas.’
27 Later, when the Beelzebub
came and commanded his serv-
ants, they pierced His side with
a spear. There was a sudden flo-
w of pure blood 6 and water.
28 As the sins of His son were
flowing away in that flood, the
nature, which observed the suff-
erings of the great king, cried. It
postponed 7 her activities greatly.
29-30 The great king died for
the sins of His son according to
the Scriptures, that He was buri-
ed, that He was raised 8 on the
third day according to the Scrip-
tures. He went to the prison wh-
ere His son was and taught him
all these things.
31 By that time, young prince
understood that it was his father.
The prince asked him – “My
Father, kindly show mercy upon
Your son and forgive my sins.

nature. I did not recognize you
nor give glory to you as my Fath-
er. But my foolish heart was
darkened.
33 I said about myself as a wise
man. But in fact, I became a fool 1
and followed the thoughts of the
Beelzebub by not recognizing
them.
34 I exchanged Your immortal
glory for images. I made you to
look like a mortal man, birds, ani-
mals and reptiles and in worms.
35 I was seeking for the image
and perished as a sinner. I was
ready to get down for the judg-
ment.
36-37 When he pleaded the glo-
rious king to forgive him, the glo-
rious king said to His son. “My
son, I, Myself, forgave you and
then,” He took him to His king-
dom. In the same way, God, who
is the consuming fire, says that
entering the heavenly kingdom
takes place by New Birth.
The Prayers which
doesn’t take you to heaven
38 II God, the consuming fire,
says a parable which tells about
the entering the heavenly king-
dom by New Birth.

stand – “When a beggar came
before to a house and asked for
help,
40 he was helped and sent on
his way. In the same way, there
is a result for the prayers made
without being Born Again.”
41 God, the consuming fire,
says that it will be not entering
for such ones to the heavenly
kingdom. But the Born Again
only will enter the heavenly
kingdom.
CHAPTER 76
Can a believer sin? Can
lose salvation by sinning?
WHAT did the Lord preach
about the prodigal son? What
did his father says to his elder
son about him? For this son of
Mine was dead and is alive
again 2 . Why did he leave his
father’s fellowship and went for
away country? He was dec-
eived 3 by his deceitful heart.
4 He determined to do his own
will and joined with the wicked.
He rejected the words of his
father.
5 The bitter root was grown in
him and confused for wasting
the grace of God. He was dra-
gged for sin. So he fell into a pit
Jer 17:9.
