The trial of Jesus - beaten, scourged and before Pilate - Audio

Continuing with the “trial”, scourging and condemnation of Jesus, Rory reminds the church that we can’t gloss over this just because we’ve heard it before. There is more to this than what we see on the surface. Jesus is completely humiliated, crowned with thorns and mocked. Pilate had Jesus scourged in the hope the Jews would see His humanity and have compassion on Him – but his vision of the beaten and bloody Jesus failed to arouse any pity. Pilate was also afraid that Jesus was a god (not God) and therefore didn’t want to kill Him and cause some sort of offense. The question must be asked: who killed Jesus? The Romans? Pilate? The Jews? Sinners killed Jesus – anyone for whom He died. You and I.
