Understanding the Cross – The Suffering Servant
Jesus, the Servant of the Lord, suffered and died in payment for our sins, but through that very suffering and the resurrection He was victorious to bring us salvation.
Mark 15:15; Isaiah 52:13-53:12
Jesus On Trial – Pilate
Pilate, the religious leaders, and the crowd worked together to wrongfully crucify Jesus in the place of a wicked man. This act mirrors the Gospel – we are freed from the punishment we deserve because Christ willingly takes our place.
Mark 15:1-15
