Life's not fair...Thank God!


John 19: 16 So he delivered him over to them to be crucified.

I have one thing to say about this cowardly, crowd pleasing act on the part of Pontius Pilate…THANK GOD!!!

You see, our potential for forgiveness was in the balance.  If Jesus Christ had NOT been crucified there would have been no shedding of the blood for  cleansing us from sin.

Did Pilate know he was doing God’s will?  No.

Is God’s purpose thwarted by man?  No.

Was if fair that the only One Who had lived a sinless life was in a mock trial and offered up to death to please the crowd?  No.

Am I glad He was?  Yes.

You should be too!
