Description:
Delivered during the Sunday morning worship service, 05/10/2020. Early on Friday morning-- shortly after dawn, April 7th, in the year 30AD (if that date is accurate) a knock came to the door of a man named Pontius Pilate. He wasn't really a significant man, certainly of no historical importance. He was just a government bureaucrat in an obscure part of the Roman Empire. As Pilate rose from sleep that fateful morning, and prepared for his day-- it seemed to be a day like any other day. But on that morning-- eternity knocked! We will study the events surrounding the early-morning arrival of the Sanhedrin at Pilate's door to request Jesus' Crucifixion. We will analyze the beliefs held by both Pilate and the Jews that dictated their faulty decisions concerning Jesus, and led both of them to collude in one of the greatest miscarriages of justice in human history. We will then carefully look at our own lives and beliefs to see if we will fare any better-- when eternity knocks!
