As we continue our journey through the Gospel of John, we dive into chapters 18 and 19, walking through the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus as we approach Easter. This season of Lent invites us to engage deeply with a familiar yet profoundly challenging story—the suffering of Christ. It’s easy to skip ahead to the resurrection, but there is so much to learn in these moments of Jesus’ trial, betrayal, and ultimate sacrifice.
Key Themes Covered:
Human Struggle with Pain & Suffering – As humans, we often avoid pain—whether our own or others’. How do we sit in the reality of Jesus’ suffering without looking away?
Jesus & Pilate: A Clash of Power – Jesus stands firm in divine authority, while Pilate sways under pressure. What does true power look like?
Pilate’s Search for Truth – When Pilate asks, “What is truth?” is he dismissive or genuinely searching? How does his question reflect modern struggles with truth and authority?
Key Verses:
John 18:36 – "My kingdom is not of this world."
John 19:10-11 – "You would have no power over me if it were not given to you from above."
Matthew 28:18 – "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me."
Philippians 2:9-11 – "Therefore God exalted him to the highest place...that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow."
Takeaways:
This week, sit with John 18-19 and ask God to reveal areas in your heart where you struggle to surrender to His authority.
Reflect on what it means to have spiritual authority through Christ—how can you walk in power, love, and self-discipline?
As Easter approaches, let’s not rush past the cross. Let’s sit with the reality of Jesus’ suffering and allow it to deepen our love for Him.
Jesus’ power is unshakable, rooted in the truth of who He is. Unlike the fleeting power structures of the world, His authority stands firm. Whatever you are facing today, know that His power, love, and sovereignty are over it all.
