The Dream Of Pilate’s Wife

Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 9, 2022

Pilate had to face the decision of what to do with Jesus. With sins dragging on him and forces of evil crying for Christ's blood, Pilate stood in the balance. Just then, his wife had a dream from God to warn him. We all are warned not to decide this wrongly.

What Shall We Do With Jesus?

Contributed by David Nolte on Feb 21, 2021

One way or another we will make a decision about Jesus.

In the past year we saw the results of mindless mobs inciting mindless riots, rebellion, vandalism and violence. Unfortunately that happens when passion exceeds prudence, selfishness overrides self-control, and hatred outweighs honor. It has happened in every generation. It happened in the ...read more

Ghosts Of The Godly

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 5, 2021

Dead Christians came out of the graves when Jesus rose from the dead, and this leads to many questions about the ghosts of the godly.

History is full of the weird and mysterious in relation to the dead. In Barbados, in the West Indies, in 1812, a vault was opened and three coffins were in a confused state. In 1815 and 1819 it was opened, and again, each time the coffins were in disarray. The Governor, Lord Cambermere had the ...read more

Listen To Your Wife

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 6, 2021

By listening to his wife he could have become a noble hero. There could have been St. Pilate churches all through history, and Pilate could have become a popular Christian name. But Pilate blew it because he would not listen to his wife.

Is there a man alive whose wife has never said, "You should have listened to me?" The pages of history are red with the blood of men who should have listened to their wives. Calpurnia pleaded with Caesar on that fatal Ides of March not to leave the house. She had a restless night, and ...read more

He Was Counted Among The Rebels Youth Sermon

Contributed by Youth Sermons on Oct 3, 2023

Jesus, though sinless, was associated with criminals to demonstrate His love for us and to show that He understands our lowest moments. Despite this, He was exalted by God and given the greatest name above all names.

Hey guys! Hope you're all doing great. Today, we're going to talk about something pretty wild. You know how in movies, the hero is always the good guy, right? Well, in the greatest story ever told, our hero, Jesus, was actually counted among the bad guys. Crazy, huh? This comes from Isaiah 53, a ...read more

Barabbas - A Man Who Was Freed

Contributed by Dusan Tillinger on Apr 14, 2014

What does it really mean that Jesus died for us? There is a story of Jesus Barabbas who should die on the cross but his place was taken by Jesus Christ, God´s Son.

Today I want to tell you a story of a man whom we meet during the Lenten season but we don´t know him very well because his name just briefly shows up in the passion story. This person made many unusual decisions in his life and tried some things that an ordinary person may never experience. Now, ...read more

From the perspective of all who bore eyewitness to the events that transpired during the 24 hours of that first Good Friday, it was anything ...read more

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Apr 21, 2013

Christ rode into Jerusalem as the crowds gathered and cheered. But the sweet sounds of cheers turned sour and faded over the next few days as they gave way to shouts of “Crucify Him!” To understand this we must first understand why the crowds followed Chr
