About Word Online (Videos): Series 12 - In the shadow of the Cross
This series starts with Jesus’ important prophetic teaching and prediction about the future starting with forthcoming judgement on Israel for rejecting him as Messiah. There are also longer-term predictions about the challenges and opportunities for his followers throughout the era of the church. Jesus then predicts his ‘Second Coming’. The series ends with a description of the ‘Last Supper’ that Jesus shared with his disciples the evening before his death.
Jesus prays for himself, for the disciples that are with him and then for all those who believe through those disciples.
