Lenten Exchange “What Shall I Do, Then, With Jesus?” - Matthew 27:15-22 Week Six
WASCANA Circuit 2023 Lenten Exchange Week Six: Rev. Arron Gust from Grace Lutheran Church preaches on The Searching Question of Lent, “What Shall I Do, Then, With Jesus?” - Matthew 27:15-22
Matthew 27:15–22
Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to release for the crowd any one prisoner whom they wanted. And they had then a notorious prisoner called Barabbas. So when they had gathered, Pilate said to them, “Whom do you want me to release for you: Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?” For he knew that it was out of envy that they had delivered Him up. Besides, while he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent word to him, “Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered much because of Him today in a dream.” Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowd to ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus. The governor again said to them, “Which of the two do you want me to release for you?” And they said, “Barabbas.” Pilate said to them, “Then what shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?” They all said, “Let Him be crucified!”
