j g bellettThe Moral Glories of Our Lord -  A devotion regarding the Moral Glory in the character of the Lord Jesus.  All of his life went up to God as a sacrifice of sweet savour. Every expression of Himself in every measure, however small, and in whatever relationship it was rendered, was incense to his father.  Whatever Adam lacked, the Lord fulfilled completely in his perfect life.  J G Bellett was a brother from the United Kingdeom who wrote his works in the 1800's. 
Sunday School Lesson 725 Jesus on Trial before Pilate Print E-mail

Lesson: 725 Lesson Name: Jesus Standing before Pilate
Theme: Christ the Sinless / Christ Refused / Choices

Reading: Mark 14:53-15:15  Matt. 26:57-27:26, John 18:28-19:16

Memroy Verse: Isaiah 53:3
Memory Verse Text: He is despised and rejected of me, a Man of Sorrows.

Point 1: There are many stages in the trial of the Lord Jesus. He suffered a religious trial before the High Priest and the High Council of the Jews. He endured a political trial before Herod as well. Then He stood before Pilate to be judged of him. All were unjust and all charges were unfounded.
Point 2: Pilate hears the trumped up charges of the people, but repeatedly (careful reading may show you 5 times) says there is no reason (fault) for judgment in Him.
Point 3: Knowing this Pilate tries to distract them by offering Barabbas. Crying for the blood of Christ - Pilate has Him scourged in the hope that will be blood enough. Don't underplay scourging. Many people died under it.
Point 4: Finally - to content the people - to show that he was Caesar's friend - he takes sides against the Son of God and pronouces the death sentence. All of this in spite of the words of the Lord Jesus -John 19:11
