Posted on Nov 2nd, 2008 | 0 comments

Luke 23:5-25

1. Recap from last week.
1. Our anger, our religiosity, our politics.
2. Worldliness: it is just the air we breath.
2. Why did Jesus Have to Die?
1. Our desire for signs and wonders (Luke 23:5-12).
1. God as entertainer. Why not? All we want is to be entertained.
2. How does this mindset work in your life?
2. Our lack of fortitude (Luke 23:13-23)
1. Pilate knew the right thing to do. He just did not do it.
2. How about you?
3. Our love of evil instead of good (Luke 23:17-25).
1. The “crowd” mob mentality.

2. In what ways do you just go along with the mob?
3. Jesus not only died because of these things in the past. He also died because of these things in your life, in the life of the church and in the life of His people now.
