Verses for Holy Week (pt 2.)

I Peter 1:18-21-- "You were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot.  He was foreknown before the foundation of the world but was made manifest in the last times for the sake of you who through him are believers in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

I Peter 2:24-24-- "He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness.  By his wounds you have been healed.  For you were straying like sheep, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls."

Luke 22:66-70-- "And they led him away to their council, and they said, "If you are the Christ, tell us".  But he said to them, "If I tell you, you will not believe, and if I ask you, you will not answer.  But from now on the Son of Man shall be seated at the right hand of the power of God."  So they all said, "Are you the Son of God then?"  And he said to them, "You say that I am."

Luke 23:46-47-- "Then Jesus, calling out with a loud voice said, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!"  And having said this he breathed his last.  Now when the centurion saw what had taken place, he praised God, saying, "Certainly this man was innocent!"
