Jesus is the Passover Lamb, the King, and the truth, who became the redemptive sacrifice for the world when he, the Son of Man, was exchanged for the "sons of mankind" in order to release them from their enslavement to sin, death, and the foreign powers of this world.

Jesus gave His life as a ransom for ours. He died for our sins. The chastisement for our peace was upon Him. He laid down His life demonstrating the love of God for sinners.

He is, therefore, alive now, receiving all those who place their trust in Him. Shared by Jason Stuart Percy at Refuge Christian Fellowship Tallahassee on Sunday, January 12, 2020.

Ze hadden Jezus steeds willen vermoorden, en hadden al vaak plannen…

We left our story from last Sunday when Pilate found out that Jesus is a Galilean. So Pilate sends Jesus to King Herod because Galilee is Herod’s jurisdiction. Herod also finds Jesus innocent and sends Him back to Pilate. 
Now Pilate has an even bigger problem on his hands. 
From a political perspective, Pilate’s been formally warned by Rome about his administrative style. 
Needless to say, another uprising from the Jews would not look good on Pilate’s record. Then all of a sudden, Pilate had an
