In one of the most memorably ironic moments in all of Scripture, Pontius Pilate washes his hands of Jesus and declares to the mob:
“I am innocent of this man’s blood,” he said. “It is your responsibility!” (Matthew 27:24)
The irony, of course, is that he is anything but innocent of Jesus’ blood.
Neither are the ones to whom he speaks.
Neither are you.
Neither am I.
We’ll together explore what it means to declare, “And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord . . . who suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried.”
Expect more than you expect out of that.
