Jesus Back Before Pilate Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Apr 3, 2023

Jesus has become a political liability, so He becomes a political pawn. With ruthless, satanic reasoning, Pilate released a murder and sentenced the innocent Jesus to death by crucifixion.

Pilate They tied Jesus up, and the whole crowd led him away from Caiaphas to the hall of judgment in the early morning. They delivered him to Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor of Judea.(Matthew 27:2, John 18:28) The Jews wouldn't go into the judgment hall. They would be defiled (considered ...read more

One can only imagine the shock and awe experienced by Barabbas. He was guilty of every charge. He is on death row awaiting execution, then the surprise come. “You are free to go! All can be saved, all need to be saved, and all can be saved to the uttermost!

Mercy Took My Seat

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 8, 2025

At the cross, justice demanded judgment, but mercy took our place—clearing our debt and crediting Christ’s righteousness to all who believe.

Some years ago, Gary Haugen told a story he called “snack math.” He was teaching his kids about fairness. One child got two cookies while another got only one. The protest came fast: “That’s not fair!” That moment made Haugen realize something profound — every child is born with a built-in sense ...read more

Big Life Little Life - Mark 15:1-15 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on May 22, 2024

What is it about the natural human heart that prefers someone like Barabbas to Jesus? If we don’t know the answer to that question, we’ll miss one of the most important messages of the whole book of Mark. And when it comes to a choice, we’ll make the wrong decision too.

Mark 15:1 Very early in the morning, the chief priests, with the elders, the teachers of the law and the whole Sanhedrin, reached a decision. They bound Jesus, led him away and handed him over to Pilate. 2 "Are you the king of the Jews?" asked Pilate. "Yes, it is as you say," ...read more

The Way To Paradise

Contributed by Reggie Corfield on Apr 12, 2025

Like the two thieves on the cross we too have an opportunity while we are still alive and here on earth to choose to be with the Lord or ask for some more of the world. These are two very different destinies and either of the choices have eternal consequences. I hope you will choose Jesus!

Journey with me if you will to the Spring of AD 29. The day started early. It was about half past six on Friday morning. The purple robe was ripped off Jesus’ badly beaten body and a crown of thorns was placed on his head. He was clothed again with his own blood-stained, garment and led to ...read more

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Apr 17, 2025
