Nothing!
Pilate called all the people together with the leading
priests and the {Jewish} leaders. Pilate said to them, "You
brought this man (Jesus) to me. You said that he was trying
to change the people. But I judged him before you all. I
found no wrong that he had done. Jesus is not guilty of the
things you say. Also, Herod found nothing wrong with him;
Herod sent Jesus back to us. Look, Jesus has done nothing
wrong. He should not be killed. So, after I punish him a
little, I will let him go free."
-- Luke 23:13-16 (ERV)
KEY THOUGHT:
"Nothing this man has done calls for the death penalty." That pretty
much settles it. Jesus didn't deserve to die. He was falsely arrested,
falsely accused, falsely tried, and falsely executed. He doesn't die
for crimes he committed, but for our sins so we could be set free and
made children of God.
TODAY'S PRAYER:
Father in heaven, thank you for your grace. Precious Lord and Savior,
thank you for your willing sacrifice for my sins. Holy Spirit, thank
you for your transforming work in my life. May my life never be an
affront to the grace given me, the sacrifice made for me, and the
Spirit that lives in me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
