Ep. 33 - Jesus Was Killed

We are starting a new series today that will get us through the next six weeks are so. And everything we have talked has been leading us to these next few weeks. We’ve asked what was Jesus like? What did He do? What did He teach? And what did He claim? And we’ve seen some pretty amazing stuff. But starting today we are asking, “Why Did He Die?” I’m sure that most listeners know that as a relatively young man, somewhere around Webb and I's age, Jesus’ life was taken from Him. The next few weeks we want to ask, “Why?” What happened? What did it mean? What did it accomplish? I’m sure many people know this already, but Christianity hinges on how we answer these questions. So here’s how we’ll do it. We are going to peel back one layer of the onion at a time. We are going to start toward the surface, and then each week, we will peel back one layer and go deeper into the Bible says so that we really understand what the Bible teaches about Jesus’ death. Here’s what we are going to see in this first week— Jesus didn’t simply die, He was killed. Today, I want us to see why that happened and how that happened.
