There are few things in life that can hurt us so deeply and scar us so permanently as to have our faith shattered by someone we love. But by Gods grace faith can and is restored.
Restoring your faith John Chapter 21 When was the last time that you had your faith entirely shattered? Was it in the Detroit Red Wings or the Toronto Maple Leafs? That’s one kind of faith – the faith of a fan. What about not getting that promotion or job that someone had promised you? That’s ...read more

I want to consider the aspect of the kingship, the sovereignty of Jesus Christ, as revealed in the few hours at the close of His life on earth.
Behold Your King John 19:5 & 14 John 19:5 Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!

There is a coronation that we will never forget… the mock crowning of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
INTRO: 1. Few events in the course of history has been given more significance than has the crowning of a new king or monarch…the coronation of a nation’s sovereign ruler. a. No expense is spared in this great event. b. A priceless crown is commissioned to be designed and ...read more

This sermon is a focus on Jesus as Pilate and others saw him -- a failure. The irony is, his "defeat" was actually his key to victory.
1. Jesus, a Wanted Man "If Jesus had of entered into one of our modern cities, leading a parade, as the "triumphal entry into Jerusalem, He would have been arrested immediately. He would be a wanted man." * The FDA would want Him for turning water into wine without a license; * The EPA for killing ...read more

In the beginning of John 19 we see three different examples of what people did with Jesus. The soldiers mocked him, Pilate didn't want to deal with him and the Jews rejected him. What about us? What will we do with Jesus?
WHAT WILL YOU DO WITH JESUS? John 19:1-16 1) The soldiers mocked him (2-3). To mock means to ‘imitate in contempt’ or ‘ridicule’ or ‘scorn’. The specific word mocked is used in Matthew’s gospel. Matt. 27:28-30, “They stripped him and put a scarlet ...read more
Today we will explore four facets of the cross, four features that compel us to trust in Jesus Christ.

Its tragedy summons all sufferers. Its absurdity attracts all critics. ...read more
Scripture: John 19:1-30
God through Pilate gives Israel one last chance before consigning the nation to perpetual judgment. Their abject rejection meant the loss of the nation ethnically and opened the door to all who will believe to become God's chosen people.
One Last Chance John 19:8–16 Introduction Last week we saw Pilate pronounce three times that he found no guilt in Jesus and tried to get Jesus released. First he tried to get the crowd to choose Barabbas. Then he tried the sympathy approach by having Jesus beaten up a bit and mocked by ...read more

Good Friday: Behold the man; behold the king; behold your God. Gaze upon the man upon the cross and ask yourself "who do you see?"
WHO DO YOU SEE UPON THE CROSS? I have made it a tradition these last four years or so to watch Mel Gibson’s movie The Passion. As Easter comes around each year I use tools like this movie to meditate upon what Jesus did for us. This year, however, something strange happened. For our movie club ...read more

How did the Cross get to be the central theme of Christianity?
The Death of Christ The cross: it is the central theme to Christianity. We identify ourselves, our Lord, our God by particularly cruel form of execution. Yet we display the cross with pride. We wear it on t-shirts, on jewelry, some of us even tattoo it on our bodies. Why is it that we ...read more

The trial and crucifixion of Jesus is a story of hypocrisy and raging hatred.
He Did It for Us John 19:1-19:20 The trial and crucifixion of Jesus is a story of hypocrisy and raging hatred. It is also the story of the power and majesty of Jesus. The Jewish religious authorities wanted ...read more
Jesus enters Jerusalem as the Messiah—King of the Jews. Kings hate other kings coming onto their turf. The king is crucified—a messenger of love and a victim of hate. In the process, what looks good turns out bad and what appears to be bad becomes good.
INTRODUCTION There is a Chinese story of a farmer who used an old horse to till his fields. One day, the horse escaped into the hills and when the farmer's neighbors sympathized with the old man over his bad luck, the farmer replied, "Bad luck? Good luck? Who knows?" A week later, the horse ...read more
