    I Am Barabbas

    based on 1 rating
     | 13,212 views

    Are we much different from Barabbas?

    I am Barabbas – Mark 15:1-15 Introduction So Jesus has faced his accusers, been found guilty of blasphemy, but because the Romans are in charge they have a law which states only they can pass the death sentence and carry it out. You see, when Jesus told the disciples he would be handed over ...read more

    The Non-Decision Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Mar 30, 2016
     | 8,068 views

    Pilate declares Jesus innocent so Jesus should be set free. But Pilate also needs to compromise so he makes a “non-decision”. Pilate’s decision seems better than the decisive decision of the chief priests to call Caesar their king however a non-decision about Jesus is still a decision against Him.

    Message John 19:1-16a The Non-Decision. Have you ever been in one of those situations where you don’t really make a decision – but by not making a decision you actually make a decision? It might happen to a person who gets asked to join in on a Fun Run. You have to run 10km. You are not sure if ...read more

    A look at the response of the centurion and Pilate as they see him and examine him.

    March 21, 2012 Two Romans John 18:28-29 Then the Jews led Jesus from Caiaphas to the palace of the Roman governor. By now it was early morning, and to avoid ceremonial uncleanness the Jews did not enter the palace; they wanted to be able to eat the Passover. So Pilate came out to them and ...read more

    It's Time..."To Get Your Worship On"

    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,035 views

    Your praise and worship attitude of no matter what happens.... I'm going to believe and trust God with the results... is where the rubber meets the road!

    It's time..."to get your Worship On" 1 Thess. 5:18-20 MSG. 16-18. Be cheerful no matter what; pray all the time; thank God no matter what happens. This is the way God wants you who belong to Christ Jesus to live. No matter what is going on in life, you can find a reason to thank God. Most ...read more

    Bad Decision #2 Series

     | 701 views

    God always responds when we repent and return to Jesus

    What to eat, what to wear, who to respond to first, what to prioritize at work — each of us makes hundreds, if not thousands, of decisions each day. Some of these choices have larger consequences than others. For starters, who we choose to surround ourselves with, where we live, who we worship, ...read more

    One Last Chance Series

     | 6,444 views

    God through Pilate gives Israel one last chance before consigning the nation to perpetual judgment. Their abject rejection meant the loss of the nation ethnically and opened the door to all who will believe to become God's chosen people.

    One Last Chance John 19:8–16 Introduction Last week we saw Pilate pronounce three times that he found no guilt in Jesus and tried to get Jesus released. First he tried to get the crowd to choose Barabbas. Then he tried the sympathy approach by having Jesus beaten up a bit and mocked by ...read more

    Seven Sundays To Easter: The End—but It Wasn’t Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Mar 20, 2021
     | 3,234 views

    The Lord Jesus Christ had been sentenced to death by crucifixion. Once He died, most people believed that everything died along with Him. But it wasn't--three days later, He arose from Joseph's tomb, ALIVE!

    Introduction: The Lord Jesus Christ had been betrayed and arrested in the garden of Gethsemane, as all four Gospel writers describe in their works. What happened next is an attempt to get rid of Jesus by any means necessary in the minds of the religious leaders. It’s a sad commentary that ...read more

    You may have noticed, but we see more and more in the world that Christians are arguing about everything. We seem to have more and more Christians judging people not in the faith.

    What Will You Do With Jesus?

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Oct 14, 2013
     | 8,983 views

    In the beginning of John 19 we see three different examples of what people did with Jesus. The soldiers mocked him, Pilate didn't want to deal with him and the Jews rejected him. What about us? What will we do with Jesus?

    WHAT WILL YOU DO WITH JESUS? John 19:1-16 1) The soldiers mocked him (2-3). To mock means to ‘imitate in contempt’ or ‘ridicule’ or ‘scorn’. The specific word mocked is used in Matthew’s gospel. Matt. 27:28-30, “They stripped him and put a scarlet ...read more

    Pilate did with Christ what millions do today: he was not against Him, but wanted to avoid the issue. When the pressure came, he had a choice. It is only under pressure that our true convictions surface.

    Note: this is a bulletin insert I put in our bulletins to supplement the sermon; it contains much helpful information, so I have included it here before the sermon. Ed Pilate: A Friend to Caesar or Not? The year was 33 AD. Jesus had been arrested and illegally tried. From a human perspective, ...read more

    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
