What a passage to read for my birthday! The false charges, the hatred, the beating, the rejection of all Jesus is had to have been so emotionally tough for Him. This was a road that He had to travel, but what an awful road! I just taught on this in OSL last night and I must say that I am moved when I think of what my Jesus has done for me. He didn’t just take a bullet to the head, he suffered in every way possible. The physical suffering was no doubt indescribable and the mental and emotional torture was astoundingly tormentous. He did it – for me – I am forever in His debt.
There is another interesting thing that I saw. Judas Iscariot somehow came to his senses and realized that he did wrong. However the religious leaders had no such revelation. The man who Satan himself indwelt had a revelation, but the Pharisees were worried about breaking God’s law by accepting blood money back into the treasury – that it came from! Religion twists you like no other sin – stay away from it – it’s dangerous!
