Jesus Before Herod Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Mar 20, 2023

LUKE 23: 6–12 JESUS BEFORE HEROD [JESUS’ LAST DAY SERIES] [Luke 9:7-9; 13:31; Acts 3:11-22] Pilate was astute enough to realize in some fashion that it was he who was on trial, not Jesus. In some way, Jesus is in control of His own trial and Pilate seems cognizant of that. But, in spite of ...read more

Jesus Before Pilate Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Apr 3, 2023

The trials on Jesus’ last earthly day picture the religious & political world’s rejection of Jesus & His claims. He came unto His own and they did not receive Him. Sin’s blindness leads to Jesus’ dying because of who He is, God in human flesh.

LUKE 23: 1–5-7 JESUS BEFORE PILATE [JESUS’ LAST DAY SERIES] [Mark 15:1–5; Mt. 5:10-12] Jesus’ last day begins with Him being rejected and condemned by the Jewish ruling counsel and then being hauled before Pilate.

Passover Jesus To Pilate

Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Mar 24, 2018

How much do we really understand about the context behind the trial and death of Jesus. Why were the Jews so insistent that Jesus should be put to death and what's more by the hated Romans?

The city is full of pilgrims from all over the Mediterranean world to attend this great national festival when they celebrated their release from slavery in the land of Egypt.

The Power Of Forgiveness By Pst. Joseph Ondu

Contributed by Joseph Ondu on May 2, 2024

The Power of Forgiveness Introduction: Today, I want to talk to you about a subject that is close to the heart of God and essential for our own spiritual well-being — forgiveness. The power of forgiveness is one of the most profound aspects of the Christian faith. It's not just a nice idea; ...read more

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on May 20, 2024

When is it okay to protect yourself, and when does it fall into the kind of self-saving that Jesus forbids? We'll learn from Jesus and Peter what it looks like to lose your life to save it rather than saving your life and losing it.

See what you think of this verse: Our savior displayed on a criminal's cross Darkness rejoiced as though heaven had lost But then Jesus arose with our freedom in hand That's when death was arrested and my ...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
