Jesus Faced Judgment In Front Of Pontius Pilate Series

Contributed by Robert Irvine on Jul 24, 2024

Jesus was judged by Pilate and was taken away and died on the cross at Golgotha. Pilate knew that Jesus was innocent yet he substituted the innocent man, Jesus, for the guilty robber and murderer, Barabbas.

The prophet Isaiah wrote that the suffering servant would suffer judgment. In the previous sermonm, we saw how Jesus was silent when confronted by Pontius Pilate at his illegal trial. I don’t want to repeat what has been said, but suffice it to say Jesus was judged by Pilate and was taken away and ...read more

What Is A Reformed Sinner? Series

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Nov 13, 2022

Romans 2:1-16 springs a snare, of sorts, for each peruser who felt that Paul's overwhelming rundown of sins toward the end of Romans chapter 1 was about others.

Dealing With Depression And Mental Health Series

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jun 30, 2025

Bound To God Series

Contributed by Roshelle Brenneise on Nov 20, 2025

As we know, the era of the Judges was a difficult time in Israel due to the never-ending spin cycle of disobedience – defeat – crying – deliverance. The book of Ruth is a glimmer of hope in such a dreary landscape.

The Jesus Way Series

Contributed by Anthony Seel on Feb 12, 2019

As Christians, our choices are much like Israel’s choices in the period of the judges. We can assimilate; we can allow the surrounding culture to absorb us without a whimper. Or, we can determine that, by the grace of God, we will be salt and light in the places where God places us and sends us.

Character Study Of Jephthah Series

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Mar 22, 2025

Jesus And The Pharisee's Series

Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Jun 11, 2014

Jesus confronted the Pharisee’s with straight talk to get them to change their ways. He wanted them to see the error in their thinking, behavior and change. He wanted them to see their legalistic – non grace attitude which was driving them away from Heaven and not toward Heaven.
