Easter is almost here and on Good Friday, Jesus was crucified upon the cross.

When the Lord Jesus Christ shed his blood on the cross, he paid for our sins so that we can be saved from the wrath to come and can know God as our Father. All we have to do is REPENT of our sins and BELIEVE in the Lord Jesus Christ

Before he shed his blood for our sins, the blood of animals was shed upon the altar to atone for our sins.

I also have a black and white version of this scene, but I think the color version is more representative of the Easter season. This is my belief and not intended to oppose how others believe

My belief as well, Tick...and you've chosen a lovely way to portray that Biblical truth...before His crucifixion He often spoke in parables to exemplify His teachings...one in particular speaks of the shepherd who having 99 sheep who were not lost, would go out in search of the ONE who was lost...this shows us that He loves us so much He would have gone through all He did even to save just ONE soul...thank you for sharing this.

As he maneuvers to lay down in this green pasture, he reminds us of the importance to us of the next three days, of the last 2000 years, of life eternal.

Tick, to me it's great that you, as citizen of a free country, can speak freely about your believe.
One has to realize that in some countries one would be prosecuted for it.
A very appropriate image for Easter and a good contender for the current contest!
If you decide that this image will be your entry, wish you Good Luck with it.
Wish you and yours anyhow a Happy Easter, Owd Fella!

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

A very appropriate image for the holiday, Tick. I'm surprised your church hasn't asked to use it on the cover of their Easter program... or have they?

Have a good holiday.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
