Matthew 26: 1-5; The Plot Against Jesus

Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.

Jesus knows exactly what to expect as he travels to Jerusalem. He knows that he is going to be handed over; he knows he is going to be humiliated in a 'trial' by the Jewish court; he knows he is going to be tortured and crucified. Jesus knows all of this is going to happen. And yet, he goes to the cross anyway. He still travels down to Jerusalem. Why? Because we need him to. We need Jesus to go to the cross. We need Jesus to be handed over; we need Jesus to be put on trial; we need Jesus to be crucified. Jesus knows our needs, and he takes care of those needs. Jesus loves us enough to go through all of this that we may be saved. Jesus knows what to expect if he goes to Jerusalem, but he goes anyway. Why? Because he loves us. God bless you.

Pastor Josh
