He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus.<br \/>\nJoh 19:39\u00a0 And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.<br \/>\nJoh 19:40\u00a0 Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.<br \/>\nJoh 19:41\u00a0 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid.<br \/>\nJoh 19:42\u00a0 There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews&#8217; preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand.\u00a0(KJV)<\/p>\n<p>The four Gospel accounts clearly record the fact that our Lord Jesus Christ died on the cross.
