S3E29: Condemned by the Righteous (24 Hours that Changed the World pt. 4)

Sermon #157

This week as we continue to look at the 24 hours that changed the world, we come to the trial of Jesus by the Sanhedrin.  It's been widely accepted that this so-called trial was a sham, a travesty of justice, which was set up to serve the purpose of once and for all getting Jesus out of the picture.  The Jewish religious rulers had already determined that they would have Jesus executed, and now they just needed a reason to do so.  And the irony is, the so-called religious people were condemning to death the very God they supposedly worshiped and adored. But this trial wasn't just about Jesus.  As we will soon see, it was a trial for two people, and in the end both were convicted.  So grab your Bible, turn it to Mark chapter 14, and prepare your heart and mind as we see Jesus condemned by the righteous.
