For our Good Friday service this year, Pastor John preached over John 19:1-30. With the one thing for the sermon: "Surrender your all to Jesus, the King of All, for he surrendered his authority to die for us.". The three main characters dealing with authority at the crucifixion:
1) Pilate selfishly abused his God-given authority.
2) The Jews rebelliously rejected God as their authority.
3) Our Savior King humbly surrendered his authority.
