Message: Jesus Celebrates the Passover
Series: The Last Week of Jesus
Martin Nieuwets speaking
Mar 14/15
During that last Passover meal Jesus spent with his disciples, Jesus revealed a shocking reality—one of them would betray Him. “Surely not I, Lord?” they said one after the other, including Judas, the one who would betray Him. While Jesus still had to die, what sadness He must have felt knowing His arrest would be initiated at the hands of one of His own. Jesus warned Judas of the dire consequences of his actions; however, this did not change the betrayer’s heart. Personal desires had trumped devotion to the Lord. May our desires be to see God’s kingdom come and His will be done.
