Jesus' Suffering (Matthew 27a)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Apr 13, 2024

What pampered king, president or prime minister of this world would suffer for the sake of his people? Yet, Jesus, king of the world did. Let's look at Jesus' suffering in Matthew 27:1-33.

Early in the morning, all the chief priests and the elders of the people made their plans how to have Jesus executed. So they bound him, led him away and handed him ...read more

The Biggest Mistake Of All

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Mar 19, 2023

Why did the crowd choose Barabbas over Jesus? Does it say something about their priorities - and ours?

Nathan wished he were anything but here. When he had reported for duty that morning he had no idea what he was getting into. Usually he loved being a temple guard. The pay was good, the duty was light, and the prestige was awesome. The hardest thing he had to do was keep his mouth shut about what ...read more

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?

Passover Jesus to Pilate It is the feast of the Passover in the city of Jerusalem around AD30. 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. Now they were effectively ...read more

The Cross Of Barabbas Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 25, 2018

All 4 gospels tell us the story of Barabbas (but we never learn the names of the other prisoners to die that day). Why? What is it about Barabbas that was so important that Scripture tells us his name?

OPEN: Someone once noted that Jesus borrowed just about everything he had while on earth. He borrowed a place for His birth, a house to sleep in, a boat to preach from, an animal to ride on when He entered Jerusalem, a room to meet privately with His friends for the Last Supper, and a tomb to be ...read more

Palm Sunday - God's Love Is The Message!

Contributed by Melvin Newland on Apr 7, 2020

I suppose the most infamous "almoster" in history would be Pilate who almost released Jesus. He wore the signet ring that proclaimed hIs right to do it. All he had to do was speak decisively, & Jesus would have been free.

Which Jesus Do You Want?

Contributed by David Roth on May 2, 2020

Our sinful flesh chooses Barabbas, as did the crowd, because he is like us. But Christ chooses us, that we may be like Him.

J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. “Which Jesus do you want?” He had two prisoners. Both of them had been accused of trouble-making. Of being insurrectionists and revolutionaries. ...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

Everyone who is born on the face of the earth are guilty of sin. No one can ever say that they are sinless. But there's only one person on this world who was born in flesh as a man and yet lived as sinless, that is JESUS!!

Romans 3:10 says, “There is none righteous, no, not one". Romans 3:23 - for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God... Except Jesus who was born with NO sin, lived and Died sinless. Only the blood of Jesus is Pure & Holy in all the Human Race. Because He was born of a ...read more

A Reverent Account Of A Horrific Event

Matthew's account of Jesus' Passion, as viewed from its own Biblical, historical and theological context.

A REVERENT ACCOUNT OF A HORRIFIC EVENT. Matthew 27:11-54. It is quite remarkable that two acts within Matthew’s account of our Lord’s judicial murder are passed over quite without the gory details which our modern culture seems to demand. Each is referred to by a single word in the Greek, each ...read more
