Billy Graham Preaches on the Crucifixion of Christ in Decades-Old Televised Easter Message (VIDEO)

Credit :

In this televised Easter special, Dr. Billy Graham teaches on three men who witnessed the crucifixion of Christ, and how their reactions to the momentous event shaped their eternal destinies. His impassioned address covers the thieves on either side of Jesus as he hung on the cross as well as the Roman centurion who watched from the other side of the crucifixion, as an executioner.

Graham closes the teaching by prompting the viewer to decide to follow Jesus. The world is a vastly different place than when these words traversed the airwaves, but the message remains timeless.
