Who Killed Jesus?

Contributed by James Buchanan on Mar 6, 2004

Dealing with the movie, "The Passion of the Christ", it deals with the question of who was really responsible for Jesus’ crucifixion.

Pontius Pilate And The Passion

Contributed by William Yates on Mar 15, 2004

Since the Passion has been released, critics have claimed that Mel Gibson presented too nice of a Pilate. So who was the real Pontius Pilate? This is what we examine in the text of this sermon.
