Christ as Man: A Study in LukeSample

What does it say?
Jesus was tried before Pilate, found innocent, but sentenced to death. Jesus died on the cross for the world’s sins; Joseph of Arimathea placed His body in a new tomb.
What does it mean?
The religious leaders desperately wanted Jesus tried and executed; however, neither Pilate nor Herod found Him guilty of anything. Pilate played the political game of compromise, and Herod seemed to view Jesus’ trial as personal entertainment. Pilate repeatedly stated the innocence of Christ, but his desire to protect himself and his political position overcame his desire to see justice carried out. Upon sentencing Jesus to die, Pilate condemned himself and the Jews who demanded His crucifixion. Nevertheless, God’s sovereign plan was being fulfilled.
How should I respond?
Each of us will face many decisions as we go through life. We have the opportunity to choose to do right every day, but we sometimes lack the courage to make that choice. Just as in Pilate’s situation, you will have consequences and social pressures with which to deal. How willing are you to do the right thing, no matter the cost? As you pray for guidance and base your decisions on the Word of God, you can have peace and full confidence that you are making the right choices. Will you resolve to honor God in the choices you make regardless of the outcome?

About this Plan

Luke’s Gospel is a beautiful and powerful telling of the life of Jesus. Luke focuses on Jesus as the Son of Man, the foretold Messiah who came to “seek and save the lost” (Luke 19:10). This Gospel shows us the “Upside-Down Kingdom” - that God uses what the world deems foolish and weak to shame the wise and strong.
