…FOR THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING. They did not know ____________________________ they were doing, because they did not know __________________________ they were doing it to. “Friends, I realize that what you and your leaders did to Jesus was done in ignorance.” Acts 3:17 NLT None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 1 Corinthians 2:8 We almost always _______________________________________________ what we’re doing, and almost never ___________________________ _____________________________ of what we’re doing. Every man’s way is right in his own eyes, but the LORD weighs the hearts. Proverbs 21:2 NASB

BOTTOM LINE The Cross reveals our sins ______________________________, but God’s love ________________________________________.

HOW DO I APPLY THIS IN MY LIFE? “Father, forgive ______________________, for ________________________ know not what _______________________ doing.”
