Devoted And Faithful To The End

Text: John 19: 25

DEVOTED AND FAITHFUL TO THE END

There was a small group of people who were deeply devoted to Jesus right to the very end. Their love and devotion must serve as an example and a reminder that it is possible to remain faithful.

“Now there stood by the cross of Jesus His mother, and His mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.”

John 19:25

1. The Three Marys

a. All of the women shared the same name “Mary”.
b. All of them are to be commended for their love and devotion.

2. “Now there stood by the cross of Jesus His mother”

a. Mary was the one who gave birth to Jesus.
b. The love and devotion partly stemmed from being the birth-mother.
c. She came to believe in Jesus as the Messiah-Saviour and this love and devotion grew further.
d. That she remained faithful to the end must not be taken for granted.

3. “And His mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas”

a. This would be the auntie of Jesus.
b. She grew to love Jesus as her Saviour and Teacher.
c. Little is known about her. But this mention of her at the foot of the cross of Jesus speaks well of her as one whose devotion was matched by her courage to be identified with Jesus so publicly.

4. Her husband Clopas was mentioned in the Gospel of Luke

a. Jesus walked with him and a companion on the road to Emmaus.
b. They recounted the event of the crucifixion of Jesus.
c. The risen Lord Jesus opened up the Scriptures to Clopas and his companion (Luke 24:13-35).

5. Mary Magdalene

a. She was not related to Jesus by blood.
b. But Mary would never forget how Jesus delivered her from the power of demons (Luke 8:2).
c. Her faith in Jesus did not waver and she was faithful to the very end.
d. Her love and devotion stemmed from:
i. A genuine faith.
ii. A grateful heart.
iii. A good and committed spirit of faithful devotion to her Saviour and Lord.
