Scriptures used:

• Luke 22:54 to Luke 24:31

Subject:

• The story of Peter and his denying Jesus.
• Jesus on His way to the cross with the chief priests, scribes, elders and people all blasphemously coming against Him.
• They continuously lied in their justifications as they accused Him.
• He didn’t answer them because His work was done.  He was now going to do His Father’s will.
• Herod and Pilate became friends that day.  A sad day for both of them, as they came together against Jesus.
• There was a political struggle between the two concerning Jesus and how to handle the situation.
• Pilate sends Jesus to Herod, and Herod sends Him back to Pilate after mocking Him and arraying Him in a gorgeous robe.
• Pilate gives in to the people to control the situation.  Jesus is sent to be crucified and Barabbas, a murderer and thief, was released unto the people.
• They laid hold on Simon, a Cyrenian, to bear the cross after Jesus.
• People lamented Him but He told them to weep for themselves and for their children, because this isn’t anything like they are going to see in 70 A.D.
• Jesus came with love, longsuffering, and salvation for them, and they wouldn’t receive it.  They rebelled and railed against Him instead.
