Transcript
- 0:00It's March 15th and it's just a mere coincidence that we're in Mark 15.
- 0:03We're starting Mark 15 on March 15th.
- 0:06And that coincidence means nothing for us this morning except that it was a good reminder of which passage I'd be teaching
- 0:12when Nathan told me several weeks ago that I'd be doing this on March 15th.
- 0:18So if you have a copy of God's Word, turn with me there to Mark chapter 15.
- 0:24It's in this particular portion of Scripture that we meet a fascinating man by the name of Pontius Pilate.
- 0:30He's probably known by most, even if you haven't been or grown up in church.
- 0:34His name is usually at least recognizable, usually for his infamy rather than his fame.
- 0:43Many equate him with names like Judas, like Herod, like Annas and Caiaphas.
- 0:49All the other evil characters in Scripture involved in the unparalleled drama that unfolds around the cross,
- 0:57around what leads up to Jesus' crucifixion.
- 1:02And if we look from a simple human standpoint, these men are all co-conspirators in what ultimately leads Jesus to his death.
- 1:12But from a divine perspective, however, God is the true power and the true influence who leads his Son to the cross.
- 1:21And so it's important for us, before we read this, that we come to an understanding
- 1:25that there's not a moment in this passage that we're about to read that God is not in control.
- 1:30And for that matter, there's not a moment in the rest of this chapter as we're going to see Jesus being nailed to a cross
- 1:38that God is not in control.
- 1:40And if your life seems like it's out of control this morning, then please know this.
- 1:47God is in control.
- 1:50He always has been and He always will be.
- 1:52This was His plan all along, what we're about to read.
- 1:58And it's very important for us to understand this if we are to rightly understand our salvation
- 2:03and the love that God has for us.
- 2:06Beginning in verse 1, chapter 15.
- 2:11As soon as it was morning, the chief priest held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council.
- 2:17They bound Jesus and led Him away and delivered Him over to Pilate.
- 2:21And Pilate asked Him,
- 2:23Are you the King of the Jews?
- 2:25And He answered him,
- 2:27You have said so.
- 2:28And the chief priest accused Him of many things.
- 2:32And Pilate again asked Him,
- 2:33Have you no answer to make?
- 2:35See how many charges they bring against you.
- 2:37In verse 5,
- 2:38But Jesus made no further answer,
- 2:40so that Pilate was amazed.
- 2:43Now at the feast, He used to release for them one prisoner for whom they asked.
- 2:48And among the rebels in prison who had committed murder in the insurrection,
- 2:53there was a man called Barabbas.
- 2:55And the crowd came up and began to ask Pilate to do as he usually did for them.
- 3:00And he answered them saying,
- 3:01Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?
- 3:05For he perceived that it was out of envy that the chief priest had delivered him up.
- 3:10Verse 11,
- 3:11But the chief priest stirred up the crowd to have him release for them Barabbas instead.
- 3:17And Pilate again said to them,
- 3:20Then what shall I do with the man you call the King of the Jews?
- 3:24And they cried out again,
- 3:27Crucify Him!
- 3:29And Pilate said to them,
- 3:30Why? What evil has he done?
- 3:33But they shouted all the more,
- 3:35Crucify Him!
- 3:36And so Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd,
- 3:40Release for them Barabbas.
- 3:41And having scourged Jesus,
- 3:43He delivered Him to be crucified.
- 3:46Let's pray together.
- 3:47Heavenly Father,
- 3:53Heavenly Father,
- 3:53We are so grateful
- 3:55For this moment in history.
- 3:58Though tragic to read,
- 4:00Though difficult to read,
- 4:03We thank you, Father,
- 4:04For this moment in history,
- 4:05Because we know it ultimately led you
- 4:07To the sacrifice
- 4:09That leads us to salvation.
- 4:11And that's something we'll be forever grateful for.
- 4:16We know that you demonstrated your love
- 4:19In the biggest kind of way
- 4:20That you possibly could in this moment.
- 4:24So Father, I pray that
- 4:26Your Word this morning
- 4:27Would reach deeply into our hearts.
- 4:31That your Spirit would meet with us
- 4:33And change our hearts this morning
- 4:35As we take a look
- 4:37More in detail at Mark chapter 15.
- 4:41We pray this in the name of Your Son, Jesus.
- 4:43Amen.
- 4:46Before we dive into this passage,
- 4:47Let's start with a quick review
- 4:49So that we can kind of refresh our memories
- 4:50On where we are.
- 4:52It's the Passover week in Jerusalem.
- 4:54We've kind of been talking about this week
- 4:55For several weeks now.
- 4:57It seems like a couple months now even.
- 4:59Because Mark decides to zoom in
- 5:02To kind of really focus a large part of his writing
- 5:05On this one week, the Passover week
- 5:08That leads up to Jesus' death.
- 5:10The Jewish leaders who made up the Sanhedrin,
- 5:13They want Jesus dead.
- 5:16The Sanhedrin is essentially
- 5:17The Jewish Supreme Court in that day
- 5:19For lack of better terms.
- 5:21That's the best way that we can really think about it.
- 5:23They dealt in legal matters
- 5:24Oftentimes for the Jewish population.
- 5:28Ultimately, Rome has authority
- 5:30In this situation
- 5:32And in their cultural context.
- 5:33Rome is occupying them.
- 5:35And so therefore they have authority
- 5:37There in Judea.
- 5:41But the Sanhedrin
- 5:43Dealt in legal matters
- 5:45For the Jews and things of the temple.
- 5:47There are 71 total of them
- 5:49Including the high priests.
- 5:51So they decided the first step
- 5:53To having Jesus crucified
- 5:55Or somehow terminated
- 5:57Was that they needed to arrest Jesus.
- 5:59But they don't want to do this in daylight
- 6:02Because they're afraid of the followers of Jesus
- 6:04Rising up against them
- 6:06And it would make them even less popular
- 6:08Than they already were becoming
- 6:10Under Jesus' time, his ministry
- 6:13Here on earth.
- 6:15So Jesus at this point
- 6:16Has amassed many, many followers
- 6:18Sometimes thousands of people at a time
- 6:20Walking around with him
- 6:21Following him
- 6:22And he's teaching them
- 6:23As he goes everywhere.
- 6:25And so they're afraid to arrest him
- 6:27In the full view
- 6:28Of the swelling populace
- 6:30That is coming into Jerusalem
- 6:31For the Passover.
- 6:34What made things more complicated for them
- 6:36Is that they didn't know
- 6:37How to capture him at night
- 6:38Because they didn't know
- 6:38Where he would be
- 6:39Or if he had followers
- 6:41That would be there with them
- 6:42To protect him.
- 6:44Judas Iscariot, however
- 6:46Is the answer to their dilemma.
- 6:48He negotiated a price
- 6:49Of 30 pieces of silver
- 6:51And it's on Thursday night
- 6:55As Jesus is meeting
- 6:57In the upper room
- 6:58With the 12 disciples
- 6:59That Jesus calls Judas out on
- 7:02And he says
- 7:02Go do what you're going to do
- 7:04And do it quickly.
- 7:08And so it happened
- 7:09In the Garden of Gethsemane
- 7:10While Jesus is praying
- 7:12And pleading with the remaining 11
- 7:13To stay awake
- 7:14Because something's coming
- 7:17That Judas leads
- 7:18A Roman cohort
- 7:20Along with temple officials
- 7:22To come and to arrest Jesus.
- 7:25They take him straight
- 7:26Into the high priest quarters
- 7:27First to Annas
- 7:28And then to Caiaphas.
- 7:30There's a mock trial
- 7:31Before Annas
- 7:32They're looking for some crime
- 7:34Against Rome
- 7:34That they can charge him with
- 7:35That they can bring him
- 7:36Before the Roman authorities
- 7:38They couldn't find one
- 7:39So Annas gives up
- 7:41On that endeavor
- 7:42And passes Jesus off
- 7:43To his son-in-law Caiaphas
- 7:45Before Caiaphas
- 7:46False witnesses are bribed
- 7:48And their testimony
- 7:49Is simply incoherent.
- 7:51They can't piece together
- 7:52A good testimony
- 7:53To try to frame Jesus
- 7:56For anything.
- 7:57They couldn't come up
- 7:58With anything that made sense
- 7:59So they finally left
- 8:01To accuse
- 8:02They were left to accuse
- 8:03Jesus of blasphemy
- 8:04Because he said
- 8:04That he was the son of God
- 8:06Thereby claiming
- 8:07To be a deity.
- 8:08And all this happens
- 8:11All these trials
- 8:12Happen on the same night
- 8:13That Jesus was arrested.
- 8:15Happens very quickly.
- 8:17Then comes sunrise
- 8:18And the Sanhedrin know
- 8:20That under Jewish law
- 8:21They have to hold
- 8:23A trial in daylight
- 8:24So trying to maintain
- 8:25Some sort of legality
- 8:27In the situation
- 8:28They know that they have to hold
- 8:30Some sort of trial
- 8:31In daylight
- 8:31Still not a fair
- 8:33So it's not a real fair trial
- 8:35But they hold it
- 8:36Yet another mock trial
- 8:37For him in the morning.
- 8:39And then the Jewish part
- 8:40Is done.
- 8:42But they must bring him
- 8:43To trial before the Romans.
- 8:45Why would they do this?
- 8:46They've already declared
- 8:47That he's guilty.
- 8:49They already have enough
- 8:51To possibly have him arrested
- 8:52On the spot right there.
- 8:54Why do they go
- 8:55To the Romans
- 8:56To hold another trial?
- 8:58John records
- 8:59The specific answer
- 8:59In John chapter 18
- 9:00Verse 31
- 9:01They said
- 9:02We are not permitted
- 9:03To put anyone to death.
- 9:07The Jews
- 9:08It seems for good reason
- 9:09Weren't permitted
- 9:10To invoke the death penalty.
- 9:14Rome had to invoke
- 9:15The death penalty
- 9:15And Rome had to perform
- 9:17The execution.
- 9:19So we learn quickly here
- 9:20That it wasn't enough
- 9:21For them to just arrest
- 9:23And imprison Jesus.
- 9:24They want him dead.
- 9:27And this is where we pick up
- 9:28In chapter 15
- 9:29Verse 1
- 9:30As soon as it was born
- 9:32The chief priest
- 9:33Held a consultation
- 9:34With the elders
- 9:35And scribes
- 9:36And the whole council.
- 9:37It would appear
- 9:37By the way
- 9:38That the whole council
- 9:39Is unanimous in this.
- 9:40They're all committed
- 9:41To Jesus' death.
- 9:43So they bind Jesus
- 9:44And take him off the pilot.
- 9:47On the secondary note here
- 9:48It's that this time
- 9:50If we're kind of
- 9:51Following the timeline
- 9:52I'm going to try to
- 9:52Piece together
- 9:53As much of the timeline
- 9:54As we can
- 9:54According to the other
- 9:56Gospel accounts as well.
- 9:58It's around this time
- 9:59That Judas begins
- 10:00To feel remorse.
- 10:01He goes and takes
- 10:02The silver that he
- 10:03Bargained to turn Jesus in
- 10:05And he goes into
- 10:06The presence of the Sanhedrin
- 10:07Drops the silver
- 10:09Down on the floor
- 10:10And says
- 10:11I betrayed
- 10:11Innocent blood
- 10:12And then he runs off
- 10:13To hang himself.
- 10:17So they bound Jesus
- 10:18And led him away
- 10:20And delivered him
- 10:21Over to Pilate.
- 10:22And they can't just let him
- 10:24Just give him over to Pilate.
- 10:26They have to have
- 10:26Some sort of reason
- 10:28For him to be arrested
- 10:29And executed
- 10:30Under Roman law.
- 10:31And so they make
- 10:32Three accusations.
- 10:33We don't get this
- 10:34In our particular text
- 10:35This morning.
- 10:35We get this from
- 10:36Luke chapter 23
- 10:38Verse 2.
- 10:39The three accusations
- 10:40Are really interesting.
- 10:42First accusation
- 10:44They present
- 10:45Before Pilate
- 10:46Is that he's
- 10:46Perverting our nation.
- 10:48Number two
- 10:49He's forbidding
- 10:49To pay taxes.
- 10:51And number three
- 10:52He's claiming
- 10:52To be a king.
- 10:53All faults
- 10:55All lies
- 10:57He didn't pervert
- 10:59The nation
- 11:00They did.
- 11:02He did not
- 11:03Forbid to pay taxes
- 11:04He said
- 11:04Give to Caesar
- 11:05What is Caesar's.
- 11:08And while
- 11:08Yes he claimed
- 11:09To be a king
- 11:10His domain
- 11:12Was not of this earth.
- 11:16They lied
- 11:17But that was
- 11:17Nothing new
- 11:18To these people.
- 11:20They were known
- 11:20To lie.
- 11:21And when we come back
- 11:22To Mark chapter 15
- 11:23And Pilate asked him
- 11:24Are you the king
- 11:26Of the Jews?
- 11:29He ignored
- 11:30The first accusation
- 11:31That they brought
- 11:31Before him
- 11:32That
- 11:33That he perverted
- 11:34The nation.
- 11:35He ignored the second.
- 11:37You would think
- 11:37That he would at least
- 11:38Care about the second one
- 11:38Right?
- 11:39That he was telling people
- 11:40Not to pay their taxes.
- 11:42And he went straight
- 11:43To the third accusation
- 11:44Because that's probably
- 11:45What fascinated him
- 11:46The most.
- 11:48Are you
- 11:49The king of the Jews?
- 11:51You can almost
- 11:53Picture him saying
- 11:54This sarcastically
- 11:55Because there's
- 11:56Nothing here
- 11:57That makes Jesus
- 11:58Look royal
- 11:58Or kingly.
- 12:02He's just been
- 12:03Beaten and spat upon
- 12:05By the Sanhedrin.
- 12:08He's being rejected
- 12:09And turned into
- 12:11Pilate
- 12:11By the very same people
- 12:12Who are supposed to be
- 12:13Under his kingly rule.
- 12:15He doesn't look
- 12:18Much like a king.
- 12:21And he
- 12:21Jesus
- 12:22Answered him
- 12:23Sood let go.
- 12:25The ESV gets it close
- 12:26You have said so.
- 12:30And the reality is
- 12:31That he is a king.
- 12:32But not in the way
- 12:33That he
- 12:34The way that they
- 12:35Had thought.
- 12:37The way that they
- 12:38Were thinking he was.
- 12:40His kingdom
- 12:41Was one that they
- 12:42Could not understand
- 12:43For lack of understanding
- 12:44Of who Jesus was
- 12:46And what he was
- 12:47About to do.
- 12:50But Paul in Colossians 1
- 12:51It's amazing
- 12:52That Nathan
- 12:53Opened up with this.
- 12:54We're going to
- 12:54Read it again
- 12:55Just because I had it in here.
- 12:56Nathan and I
- 12:57Did not plan this
- 12:57By the way.
- 12:58This is
- 12:59Completely God's sovereignty.
- 13:01He has delivered us
- 13:02From the domain
- 13:03Of darkness
- 13:04And transferred us
- 13:05Into the kingdom
- 13:06Of his beloved son
- 13:08In whom we have
- 13:09Redemption
- 13:09The forgiveness
- 13:11Of sins
- 13:11For by him
- 13:13All things were
- 13:14Created in heaven
- 13:15And on earth
- 13:16Visible and invisible
- 13:17Whether thrones
- 13:18Or dominions
- 13:19Or rulers
- 13:20Or authorities
- 13:21All things were
- 13:22Created through him
- 13:23And for him.
- 13:26His kingly rule
- 13:28Supersedes all
- 13:29Other kingdoms.
- 13:32His kingship
- 13:33Is above
- 13:34All other kings.
- 13:36And so I assure you
- 13:37Brothers and sisters
- 13:38In case there was
- 13:39Ever any question
- 13:39In your heart
- 13:40Jesus
- 13:41Is a king
- 13:43And he now
- 13:44Reigns in the hearts
- 13:45Of his people.
- 13:46He now reigns
- 13:48In his church
- 13:49That was established
- 13:50Upon his life
- 13:51His death
- 13:52And his resurrection.
- 13:55He is the only one
- 13:56Who can take
- 13:57A sinful vessel
- 13:58Like the one
- 13:58Who stands before you
- 13:59Right now
- 14:00And make it pure
- 14:02And holy.
- 14:03And that's why
- 14:06What we're
- 14:06About to read
- 14:08Had to happen.
- 14:10This
- 14:10Had to happen
- 14:12For Jesus
- 14:13To make his
- 14:15Final work
- 14:16Upon the cross
- 14:17This had to happen.
- 14:19And the chief
- 14:19Priest
- 14:20Accused him
- 14:21Of many things.
- 14:24And Paul
- 14:24Again asked him
- 14:25Have you
- 14:26No answer
- 14:27To make?
- 14:28See how many
- 14:29Charges they bring
- 14:29Against you.
- 14:30He was accused
- 14:32Of all kinds
- 14:33Of things.
- 14:35And he makes
- 14:36No defense.
- 14:38There's a part
- 14:39Of me
- 14:40That every time
- 14:40I read this passage
- 14:41I just want to
- 14:43Just like
- 14:44Grab Jesus
- 14:44By the shoulder
- 14:45And say
- 14:45Say something.
- 14:47Please
- 14:48Just defend
- 14:48Yourself now.
- 14:51Every time
- 14:51I read this passage
- 14:52You see it
- 14:53Pictured in movies.
- 14:53Every time I see
- 14:54A picture in a movie
- 14:55I think the same thing.
- 14:57Why are you
- 14:57Not defending yourself?
- 14:58Every other time
- 15:01In scripture
- 15:01When somebody
- 15:03Comes up to him
- 15:04And asks him
- 15:04Leading questions
- 15:06Or misleading questions
- 15:07And trying to
- 15:09Stump him
- 15:09He has this
- 15:11Brilliant answer
- 15:12This wisdom
- 15:13Full answer
- 15:13To give them
- 15:14Whether it's
- 15:14Asking them
- 15:15A question
- 15:15That makes them
- 15:16Walk away
- 15:16Thinking about
- 15:17The way that
- 15:18They had
- 15:18Questioned Jesus
- 15:20At some level
- 15:22He always
- 15:23Made them
- 15:23Walk away
- 15:24Stumped
- 15:25Unable to
- 15:26Answer his
- 15:28Question
- 15:28Unable to
- 15:29Figure out
- 15:30A way
- 15:30To stump
- 15:31Him
- 15:31Back
- 15:32He always
- 15:32Sent them
- 15:33Walking away
- 15:34You never
- 15:35Saw anybody
- 15:36In scripture
- 15:37As they
- 15:37Approached Jesus
- 15:38And tried to
- 15:39Trip him up
- 15:40Walk away
- 15:41Saying man
- 15:41I showed him
- 15:42He always
- 15:45Had a response
- 15:47For them
- 15:47And so
- 15:49Why does he
- 15:49Not respond
- 15:50In this
- 15:51One moment
- 15:52Where it
- 15:53Truly matters
- 15:54Why does he
- 15:55Not try to
- 15:56Redeem himself
- 15:57And the
- 15:59Answer is
- 16:00Ultimately
- 16:04It's because
- 16:05Jesus was
- 16:05Not the one
- 16:06Who needed
- 16:06Redemption
- 16:07It was us
- 16:09That needed
- 16:09Redemption
- 16:10And so
- 16:13Jesus
- 16:13Remains
- 16:13Silent
- 16:14So that
- 16:15In condemning
- 16:16himself to
- 16:16Death
- 16:17We would
- 16:17Be able to
- 16:18Be redeemed
- 16:19His church
- 16:20Would be
- 16:20Redeemed
- 16:21And so
- 16:22He also
- 16:23Does this
- 16:24In fulfillment
- 16:25Of prophecy
- 16:26Foretold
- 16:26Hundreds of
- 16:27Years
- 16:27Before Jesus
- 16:28Would ever
- 16:28Be born
- 16:28Nathan's
- 16:29Already
- 16:30Mentioned
- 16:30It a couple
- 16:30Weeks
- 16:31Ago
- 16:31But it's
- 16:32Worth
- 16:32Seeing here
- 16:33Again in
- 16:34Isaiah 53
- 16:34He was
- 16:36Oppressed
- 16:36And he was
- 16:36Afflicted
- 16:37Yet he
- 16:37Did not
- 16:38Open his
- 16:38Mouth
- 16:39Like a
- 16:39Lamb
- 16:40Who
- 16:40Was
- 16:40Led
- 16:41To
- 16:41Slaughter
- 16:41Like a
- 16:42Sheep
- 16:43Who
- 16:43Is
- 16:43Silent
- 16:43Before
- 16:44Its
- 16:44Shears
- 16:45So he
- 16:46Did not
- 16:46Open his
- 16:47Mouth
- 16:47Isaiah
- 16:4942
- 16:501 and 2
- 16:51Says something
- 16:51Similar
- 16:52So Jesus
- 16:54Made no
- 16:54Further
- 16:55Answer
- 16:55So that
- 16:56Pilate
- 16:57Was
- 16:58Amazed
- 16:59The verb
- 17:02There for
- 17:02Amazed
- 17:03Is
- 17:03Thaumato
- 17:04To marvel
- 17:05To be in
- 17:07Wonder
- 17:07Or to have
- 17:08Admiration
- 17:09For
- 17:10So I want you
- 17:12To think about
- 17:13That for a
- 17:14Moment
- 17:14A Roman
- 17:15Authority
- 17:16Rome
- 17:17Already
- 17:17Didn't
- 17:17Have
- 17:18Much
- 17:18Regard
- 17:18For
- 17:18These
- 17:18People
- 17:19Because
- 17:19They
- 17:19Took
- 17:20Their
- 17:20Land
- 17:21To begin
- 17:21With
- 17:21They're
- 17:22Occupying
- 17:23A land
- 17:23That's
- 17:23Not
- 17:23Their
- 17:24To begin
- 17:24With
- 17:25But a
- 17:26Roman
- 17:26Authority
- 17:27Of the
- 17:27Day
- 17:27Admiring
- 17:29A
- 17:29Jewish
- 17:29Carpenter
- 17:30This
- 17:32Is
- 17:32Something
- 17:33Different
- 17:34To happen
- 17:35Apparently
- 17:35It didn't
- 17:36Happen
- 17:36Much
- 17:36Where
- 17:37People
- 17:38Would
- 17:38Remain
- 17:39Silent
- 17:39When
- 17:40They
- 17:40Are
- 17:40Facing
- 17:41A
- 17:41Potential
- 17:41Death
- 17:41Penalty
- 17:42Now
- 17:43Today
- 17:44It's
- 17:44Pretty
- 17:44Normal
- 17:45For
- 17:45Us
- 17:45To
- 17:45Invoke
- 17:46A
- 17:46Fifth
- 17:46Amendment

- 17:47To

- 17:49To
- 17:49Convict
- 17:50Yourself
- 17:50In
- 17:51Court
- 17:51So
- 17:51We
- 17:51Have
- 17:51The
- 17:51Right
- 17:52To
- 17:52Remain
- 17:52Silent
- 17:53In
- 17:53Our
- 17:53Culture
- 17:54Back
- 17:55Then
- 17:55He

- 17:56Himself
- 17:57To
- 17:57Defend
- 17:57Himself
- 17:58Jesus
