Pastor Josh continues to teach us from the account of John 11 this morning:
“…Jesus deals with two kinds of sin here…the first group is wailing in
despair; they have no hope for the future, and Jesus is indignant and weeps
for them…but then we have the religious leaders, the elect, the elite, and
they turn to Jesus and they are like ‘this is going to go out of
control…everyone is going to believe in him…and then the Romans are going
to come and they are going to take away our positions of control and
power…’. The problem here with these sinners is that they are the ones that
we have to identify ourselves with…”
(Sermon originally preached on May 12, 2019)
