Sunday's sermon turned into a blog post with audio and video:

The Pharisees and Herodians tried to trap Jesus with this question: “Is it lawful for us to give tribute to Caesar, or not?” (Luke 20:22). If Jesus said they should pay the tax, it looked like He supported Rome, but if he said they should not pay the tax, He would be considered a traitor to Rome and arrested. He responded, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what Is God's” (Luke 23:25). Just as the coins with Caesar’s image belong to Caesar, people with God’s image belong to God.

Jesus stood before Pilate falsely accused, unjustly treated, and surrounded by hostility — yet He remained calm, composed, and fully trusting His Father.
In this message, we draw three powerful lessons:
1️⃣ Trust in God produces composure in trials
2️⃣ The Innocent One suffered for the guilty
3️⃣ Jesus isn’t on trial—we are
If you're walking through difficulty or injustice, Christ’s example will strengthen your faith and point you to hope.

Few passages expose the darkness of the human heart—and the beauty of Christ’s innocence—like Jesus’ illegal trial before the religious leaders.
He was mocked, blindfolded, beaten, and condemned… all while remaining the sinless Son of God who willingly suffered for our salvation.
This message walks verse-by-verse through Luke 22:63–71 to show:
• the wickedness revealed in human depravity
• the innocence and obedience of Christ
• why Jesus had to suffer this way
• what this means for your walk with God today
