N.T.#802 "Who do You Say Jesus Is?"
May 21, 2026
John 19-Part 3
LET IT GLOW
Who is your king? Is Jesus the king of your heart and life?
Pilate was driven by the crowd to please the Jews instead of his conscience. So he delivered Jesus to be crucified between to thieves. Since Jesus was not found guilty of any crime,
Pilate had His title put on the cross: JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS. (verse 19) It was written in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin. The chief priests tried to get it changed to "He said, I am the Kinga of the Jews, but Pilate would not do so. This was done so everyone could read it. Pilate wanted the sign to sting the Jews, but God meant it to declare to the world the truth about His Son.
LET IT GROW
The soldiers gambled for Jesus' clothing to fulfill Scripture in Psalm 22.
Here was a king stripped nearly naked and obviously lost his kingdom forever. Yet, Jesus' kingdom was not of this world. The sign was correct and absolutely true. Jesus is King of the Jews, Gentiles, and whole universe. (Life Application Study Bible)
Who do you say Jesus is?
LET IT GO
King of my heart, glory to Your name.
