00:00:01.320 --> 00:00:04.020
This program is made
possible by the giving
2
00:00:04.020 --> 00:00:08.100
of the God called partners
of Renner ministries.
3
00:00:08.100 --> 00:00:11.310
Get ready for a teaching
that feeds your spirit
4
00:00:11.310 --> 00:00:14.880
and your mind - where the
word is the anchor in
5
00:00:14.880 --> 00:00:16.830
uncertain times
6
00:00:16.830 --> 00:00:20.130
and doctrine doesn't bend to culture.
7
00:00:20.130 --> 00:00:21.570
We keep it simple,
8
00:00:21.570 --> 00:00:26.130
but dive deep revealing a
truth that strengthens us,
9
00:00:27.030 --> 00:00:28.920
a love that emboldens,
10
00:00:30.030 --> 00:00:32.190
and a mission that touches the world.
11
00:00:34.530 --> 00:00:36.060
Let's join Rick Renner.
12
00:00:38.130 --> 00:00:41.010
Welcome to today's program.
My name is Rick Renner.
13
00:00:41.010 --> 00:00:44.640
I'm so glad you've
joined me for my series,
14
00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:47.490
which is called Easter,
The Rest of the Story.
15
00:00:47.490 --> 00:00:50.490
And you can see on the screen
behind me an illustration
16
00:00:50.490 --> 00:00:55.260
of Herod and his men of
war that are mocking Jesus.
17
00:00:55.260 --> 00:00:57.660
This was a moment when
Jesus finally stood in front
18
00:00:57.660 --> 00:01:01.890
of Herod Antipas and Herod Antipas lost his temper
19
00:01:01.890 --> 00:01:05.610
and sent Jesus back across town to Pilate,
20
00:01:05.610 --> 00:01:10.320
where once again, Jesus
became Pilate's problem.
21
00:01:10.320 --> 00:01:12.540
But today we're gonna
really be focusing on
22
00:01:12.540 --> 00:01:16.470
what happened when Jesus was
standing before Herod Antipas.
23
00:01:16.470 --> 00:01:17.670
There's so much to this story
24
00:01:17.670 --> 00:01:21.780
that no one ever told me
when I was growing up,
25
00:01:21.780 --> 00:01:25.200
and that's why I want you to
know about Easter, The Rest
26
00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:27.000
of the Story.
27
00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:30.180
But before I get into today's
teaching, I want to tell you
28
00:01:30.180 --> 00:01:31.530
that if you need prayer, we want
29
00:01:31.530 --> 00:01:32.730
to prayer for you and my friends.
30
00:01:32.730 --> 00:01:36.780
I sincerely mean that
we are people of prayer.
31
00:01:36.780 --> 00:01:39.090
I have already prayed for you today.
32
00:01:39.090 --> 00:01:42.660
And if you have a very specific need that's on your heart
33
00:01:42.660 --> 00:01:45.000
or something that you're
dealing with in life,
34
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:46.380
maybe you just feel like you need a new
35
00:01:46.380 --> 00:01:48.750
and feeling of the Holy Spirit
to deal with what is in front
36
00:01:48.750 --> 00:01:52.590
of you and you wish there
was someone to pray with you.
37
00:01:52.590 --> 00:01:56.040
Well, here we are. I know
you can pray by yourself.
38
00:01:56.040 --> 00:01:58.650
Of course you have access to the Father,
39
00:01:58.650 --> 00:02:00.480
but sometimes in my life,
40
00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:03.870
it helps when there's another
voice that's praying with me
41
00:02:03.870 --> 00:02:05.010
and agreeing with me.
42
00:02:05.010 --> 00:02:07.770
And if you're in that
position right now, we want
43
00:02:07.770 --> 00:02:08.940
to be that voice for you.
44
00:02:08.940 --> 00:02:11.100
So you call the number on the screen,
45
00:02:11.100 --> 00:02:12.300
we're waiting to hear from you.
46
00:02:12.300 --> 00:02:16.260
Or maybe you'd rather send us
an email, write us an email,
47
00:02:16.260 --> 00:02:18.000
and when it shows up in the inbox,
48
00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:19.920
we're gonna really begin to pray for you.
49
00:02:19.920 --> 00:02:21.120
Whether you call
50
00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:24.360
or whether you're right, you
will really be prayed for.
51
00:02:24.360 --> 00:02:26.580
And Jesus is gonna really hear us.
52
00:02:26.580 --> 00:02:30.030
And Jesus is gonna do something wonderful on your behalf
53
00:02:30.030 --> 00:02:33.360
and you're gonna be so glad
you reached out for somebody
54
00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:35.400
to pray with you.
55
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:38.340
But today we're gonna be looking at
56
00:02:38.340 --> 00:02:41.130
that moment when Jesus stood
in front of Herod Antipas,
57
00:02:41.130 --> 00:02:43.410
it is going to be so good.
58
00:02:43.410 --> 00:02:46.860
But first watch this and
then I'll be right back.
59
00:02:47.760 --> 00:02:50.700
Do you know the story of
Easter, the resurrection
60
00:02:50.700 --> 00:02:52.500
of Jesus, the empty tomb
61
00:02:52.500 --> 00:02:54.480
and the appearances to the disciples?
62
00:02:54.480 --> 00:02:57.900
But did you know that's
only part of the story?
63
00:02:57.900 --> 00:02:59.800
In Rick Renner's book Easter -
64
00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:01.270
The Rest of the Story,
65
00:03:01.270 --> 00:03:03.430
Rick delves into the lesser known details
66
00:03:03.430 --> 00:03:06.190
of the Easter story that
are often overlooked.
67
00:03:06.190 --> 00:03:08.890
Details like who was Pontius Pilate:
68
00:03:08.890 --> 00:03:11.320
what really happened to the Garden of Gethsemane?
69
00:03:11.320 --> 00:03:13.600
What happened to the temple when Jesus died:
70
00:03:13.600 --> 00:03:15.760
What exactly did the disciples witness on
71
00:03:15.760 --> 00:03:17.380
that miraculous morning?
72
00:03:17.380 --> 00:03:21.040
Why Easter is the absolute
defining moment of our faith.

82
00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:50.140
Jesus was on trial before Pontius Pilate
83
00:03:50.140 --> 00:03:53.740
and Pilate did not like to
conduct trials that were
84
00:03:53.740 --> 00:03:55.210
of a religious nature,
85
00:03:55.210 --> 00:03:59.080
but now he found himself
embroiled in a religious mess.
86
00:03:59.080 --> 00:04:01.450
The religious leaders were against Jesus
87
00:04:01.450 --> 00:04:05.560
and they were demanding
that Jesus be crucified.
88
00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:10.150
But yet, when Pilate examined
him, he found no legal reason
89
00:04:10.150 --> 00:04:11.650
to prosecute Jesus.
90
00:04:11.650 --> 00:04:14.080
But then suddenly he discovered
91
00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:19.000
that Jesus was from Galilee and hip hip hooray.
92
00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:22.180
It meant that he did not
have to deal with his Jesus.
93
00:04:22.180 --> 00:04:26.020
Galilee was under the jurisdiction of Herod Antipas.
94
00:04:26.020 --> 00:04:28.780
And guess what? At that particular moment,
95
00:04:28.780 --> 00:04:32.740
Herod Anus was in town
to celebrate the Passover
96
00:04:32.740 --> 00:04:34.150
with the Jewish people.
97
00:04:34.150 --> 00:04:38.050
He was standing in his dad's
old palace on the other side
98
00:04:38.050 --> 00:04:39.310
of Jerusalem.
99
00:04:39.310 --> 00:04:41.440
His father was Herod the Great.
100
00:04:41.440 --> 00:04:44.800
So Pilate said, Hey, you're not my problem.
101
00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:46.840
You are a Herod Antipas problem.
102
00:04:46.840 --> 00:04:51.250
So he shipped Jesus across
town to stand trial in front
103
00:04:51.250 --> 00:04:53.560
of Herod Antipas.
104
00:04:53.560 --> 00:04:55.540
But when you study history,
105
00:04:55.540 --> 00:04:58.750
you find there were
several men named Herod.
106
00:04:58.750 --> 00:05:02.620
The most legendary was Herod, the Great. Herod,
107
00:05:02.620 --> 00:05:05.980
The Great had a number of
sons, some of them he killed,
108
00:05:05.980 --> 00:05:09.280
but there were three of
his boys that survived him.
109
00:05:09.280 --> 00:05:12.520
And they became rulers of
different regions in Judea
110
00:05:12.520 --> 00:05:14.710
and Palestine at that time.
111
00:05:14.710 --> 00:05:18.340
And Herod Antipas was placed over the region
112
00:05:18.340 --> 00:05:19.990
of Galilee.
113
00:05:19.990 --> 00:05:23.470
But let's talk about his name, Herod Antipas.
114
00:05:23.470 --> 00:05:26.260
This is one of the boys of Herod, the Great.
115
00:05:26.260 --> 00:05:29.530
The word Antipas is very, very insightful.
116
00:05:29.530 --> 00:05:32.620
It's a compound of 2 Greek words: the word anti,
117
00:05:32.620 --> 00:05:36.520
which means against the word
pass, which is all inclusive.
118
00:05:36.520 --> 00:05:38.830
It means everyone. But when
you compound the two words
119
00:05:38.830 --> 00:05:41.830
together, the word antipas really depicts one
120
00:05:41.830 --> 00:05:46.000
who is against everything and against everyone.
121
00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:49.191
I can't even imagine why a father would name
122
00:05:49.191 --> 00:05:51.130
his child - Antipas.
123
00:05:51.130 --> 00:05:53.500
But even the name is very insightful
124
00:05:53.500 --> 00:05:54.640
and gives us some kind
125
00:05:54.640 --> 00:05:57.650
of perspective about Herod's personality.
126
00:05:57.650 --> 00:06:00.740
He was such a man of trickery
127
00:06:00.740 --> 00:06:03.020
and a man who was known to be so devious
128
00:06:03.020 --> 00:06:05.720
that even Jesus called Herod
129
00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:08.810
Antipas a fox.
130
00:06:08.810 --> 00:06:10.880
Now, if you study the
whole ministry of Jesus,
131
00:06:10.880 --> 00:06:14.210
Jesus never uses derogatory words
132
00:06:14.210 --> 00:06:15.890
to describe political leaders.
133
00:06:15.890 --> 00:06:18.800
This is the closest Jesus ever comes
134
00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:22.640
to using a negative word to
describe a political leader.
135
00:06:22.640 --> 00:06:25.220
And he calls Herod a fox.
136
00:06:25.220 --> 00:06:27.680
Well, Jesus was from Galilee,
137
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:31.070
and we know that Herod
Anus lived in Galilee
138
00:06:31.070 --> 00:06:32.420
and he lived in Sepphoris,
139
00:06:32.420 --> 00:06:35.150
which was just a short
distance from Nazareth.
140
00:06:35.150 --> 00:06:38.270
And Jesus father Joseph had worked in Sepphoris
141
00:06:38.270 --> 00:06:40.103
and Jesus had grown up in Sepphoris
142
00:06:40.103 --> 00:06:42.078
where his grandparents lived.
143
00:06:42.078 --> 00:06:44.960
He came there regularly on
day trips from Nazareth,
144
00:06:44.960 --> 00:06:47.390
and he was very aware of the activities
145
00:06:47.390 --> 00:06:49.040
and the behavior of Herod Antipas.
146
00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:52.610
And when he called Herod Antipas a fox,
147
00:06:52.610 --> 00:06:56.690
this word fox was a term usually used to describe an animal
148
00:06:56.690 --> 00:07:00.140
that was considered to be
the epitome of trickery.
149
00:07:00.140 --> 00:07:04.790
And it was usually associated
with that which was unclean
150
00:07:04.790 --> 00:07:08.450
and infected with disease or sickness.
151
00:07:08.450 --> 00:07:12.740
So when Jesus called Herod Antipas the fox,
152
00:07:12.740 --> 00:07:16.190
it was the equivalent of him
saying Herod was a sneaky,
153
00:07:16.190 --> 00:07:20.150
lying, deceiving, dishonest, infected,
154
00:07:20.150 --> 00:07:22.310
sick individual.
155
00:07:22.310 --> 00:07:25.460
And the truth is that's
really what he was.
156
00:07:25.460 --> 00:07:26.930
Jesus knew that
157
00:07:26.930 --> 00:07:30.590
because he made day trips to Sepphoris from Nazareth
158
00:07:30.590 --> 00:07:32.750
where he saw the effects of this ruler
159
00:07:32.750 --> 00:07:35.870
who lived in the nearby city of Sepphoris.
160
00:07:35.870 --> 00:07:38.930
But Herod was absolutely jubilant
161
00:07:38.930 --> 00:07:42.440
that finally Jesus was standing in
162
00:07:42.440 --> 00:07:44.780
front of him.
163
00:07:44.780 --> 00:07:47.990
And we read this in Luke 23:8
164
00:07:47.990 --> 00:07:52.160
which says, and when Herod saw
Jesus, we're gonna come back
165
00:07:52.160 --> 00:07:53.990
to that word saw in just a moment.
166
00:07:53.990 --> 00:07:58.910
And when Herod saw Jesus,
he was exceeding glad.
167
00:07:58.910 --> 00:08:00.170
Why was he exceeding
168
00:08:00.170 --> 00:08:05.060
glad? For he was desirous to
see him of a long season
169
00:08:05.060 --> 00:08:08.330
because he had heard many things of him
170
00:08:08.330 --> 00:08:12.500
and he hoped to have seen
some miracle done by him.
171
00:08:12.500 --> 00:08:15.410
But notice it says, when Herod saw him.
172
00:08:15.410 --> 00:08:19.820
The word saw here means to see, to behold,
173
00:08:19.820 --> 00:08:23.510
to delightfully view, to look at with scrutiny
174
00:08:23.510 --> 00:08:25.910
or to look at with the intent to examine.
175
00:08:25.910 --> 00:08:27.950
So this word saw is very important.
176
00:08:27.950 --> 00:08:30.710
It means he really looked
him over, he beheld him,
177
00:08:30.710 --> 00:08:32.720
he delightfully viewed him.
178
00:08:32.720 --> 00:08:34.850
He was thrilled that this Jesus was
179
00:08:34.850 --> 00:08:36.050
standing in front of him.
180
00:08:36.050 --> 00:08:37.820
He also looked at him with scrutiny.
181
00:08:37.820 --> 00:08:40.940
He was really looking him over.
182
00:08:40.940 --> 00:08:44.450
This word emphatically
means Herod was excited,
183
00:08:44.450 --> 00:08:46.280
he was delighted
184
00:08:46.280 --> 00:08:49.580
to finally behold the
miracle worker he had heard
185
00:08:49.580 --> 00:08:51.290
so much about.
186
00:08:51.290 --> 00:08:56.290
And Herod literally looked
him over, scrutinized him
187
00:08:56.430 --> 00:08:59.100
and examined every detail of the man
188
00:08:59.100 --> 00:09:01.020
who was standing in front of him.
189
00:09:01.020 --> 00:09:04.980
And the verse says, he was
exceeding glad, and exceeding
190
00:09:04.980 --> 00:09:08.550
glad in Greek means great, exceeding great, much.
191
00:09:08.550 --> 00:09:11.190
It depicts extreme excitement.
192
00:09:11.190 --> 00:09:15.030
Someone who is ecstatic about something,
193
00:09:15.030 --> 00:09:19.020
which means Herod anus was jumping up
194
00:09:19.020 --> 00:09:21.300
and down on the inside.
195
00:09:21.300 --> 00:09:22.980
The Jesus he had heard about for
196
00:09:22.980 --> 00:09:26.940
so long was now standing in front of him.
197
00:09:26.940 --> 00:09:29.220
And by the way, this also tells us
198
00:09:29.220 --> 00:09:33.120
how legendary Jesus was in his own time.
199
00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:35.490
Even Herod Antipas had heard of him.
200
00:09:35.490 --> 00:09:37.980
He was a legend in his own time.
201
00:09:37.980 --> 00:09:42.090
That is how renowned was
the power of Jesus Christ.
202
00:09:42.090 --> 00:09:46.350
And Herod had longed
for a chance to see him
203
00:09:46.350 --> 00:09:49.830
and to experience his miraculous power.
204
00:09:49.830 --> 00:09:53.760
And that's what we continue to read in Luke 23:8,
205
00:09:53.760 --> 00:09:56.280
which says, because he was desirous.
206
00:09:56.280 --> 00:09:58.410
The word desirous in Greek means he had really,
207
00:09:58.410 --> 00:10:02.760
really longed to see him of a long season
208
00:10:02.760 --> 00:10:05.100
because he had heard many things of him. The words
209
00:10:05.100 --> 00:10:08.490
of a long season in Greek means for many years
210
00:10:08.490 --> 00:10:10.920
or for a long, long time.
211
00:10:10.920 --> 00:10:14.010
And again, Jesus was a
legend in his own time.
212
00:10:14.010 --> 00:10:18.660
And Jesus was especially a
legend in the Herod family,
213
00:10:18.660 --> 00:10:22.290
in the Herod family. The
name Jesus was the name
214
00:10:22.290 --> 00:10:23.670
that the Herod family had heard
215
00:10:23.670 --> 00:10:25.200
for years and years and years.
216
00:10:25.200 --> 00:10:26.970
These boys that belonged
217
00:10:26.970 --> 00:10:31.650
to Herod had grown up
hearing tales about Jesus
218
00:10:31.650 --> 00:10:34.050
supernatural birth.
219
00:10:34.050 --> 00:10:38.040
They had heard tales about
the Magi from the East
220
00:10:38.040 --> 00:10:40.200
who had come to worship Jesus.
221
00:10:40.200 --> 00:10:43.290
They had heard tales about
the attempt of their father,
222
00:10:43.290 --> 00:10:45.510
Herod the Great to kill Jesus
223
00:10:45.510 --> 00:10:47.850
by ordering all the babies in the region
224
00:10:47.850 --> 00:10:49.710
of Bethlehem to be murdered.
225
00:10:49.710 --> 00:10:51.900
They had heard tales about Jesus
226
00:10:51.900 --> 00:10:54.810
and his parents slipping into Egypt
227
00:10:54.810 --> 00:10:56.220
and waiting for the right moment
228
00:10:56.220 --> 00:10:58.200
to come back into the land of Judea.
229
00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:01.020
They had heard tales of
the ministry of Jesus
230
00:11:01.020 --> 00:11:03.660
that was touching the nation with healing
231
00:11:03.660 --> 00:11:05.940
and delivering power.
232
00:11:05.940 --> 00:11:09.090
The name Jesus was a name
they had heard for years
233
00:11:09.090 --> 00:11:10.500
and years and years.
234
00:11:10.500 --> 00:11:13.590
Jesus was a living legend,
235
00:11:13.590 --> 00:11:18.590
and now he was standing
in Herod's presence.
236
00:11:18.660 --> 00:11:22.140
Wow. But why was Herod most excited?
237
00:11:22.140 --> 00:11:25.080
Well, we know the answer because of Luke 23:
238
00:11:25.080 --> 00:11:27.750
8, which says he hoped
239
00:11:27.750 --> 00:11:32.280
to have seen some miracle done by him.
240
00:11:32.280 --> 00:11:34.470
Herod had heard about
his miraculous power.
241
00:11:34.470 --> 00:11:37.620
The word miracle that is used
here is a Greek word which
242
00:11:37.620 --> 00:11:42.600
describes a sign, a mark
or a token that verifies
243
00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:45.480
or authenticates a report.
244
00:11:45.480 --> 00:11:48.450
Miracles are to authenticate something.
245
00:11:48.450 --> 00:11:51.600
It's used in the gospels
primarily to depict miracles
246
00:11:51.600 --> 00:11:55.540
and supernatural events with
a purpose of such miracles
247
00:11:55.540 --> 00:11:58.150
and supernatural events to verify
248
00:11:58.150 --> 00:12:01.780
and to authenticate the
message of the gospel.
249
00:12:01.780 --> 00:12:05.740
And Jesus was known to have a
ministry that was overflowing
250
00:12:05.740 --> 00:12:07.000
with miracles,
251
00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:11.500
and Herod wanted to personally
see a miracle performed
252
00:12:11.500 --> 00:12:14.110
by Jesus.
253
00:12:14.110 --> 00:12:18.220
But we're told in Luke 23:9,
254
00:12:18.220 --> 00:12:22.360
that when Herod demanded he
work a miracle, Jesus refused
255
00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:26.710
to work a miracle on demand for Herod.
256
00:12:26.710 --> 00:12:29.470
Jesus refused to do it -
257
00:12:29.470 --> 00:12:33.130
nor did he answer the many questions
258
00:12:33.130 --> 00:12:35.380
that Herod put to him that day.
259
00:12:35.380 --> 00:12:37.450
So when we come to Luke 23:10,
260
00:12:37.450 --> 00:12:38.650
we find out something else.
261
00:12:38.650 --> 00:12:42.490
Apparently the religious vipers had followed from pilot's
262
00:12:42.490 --> 00:12:44.110
court to Herod's court,
263
00:12:44.110 --> 00:12:46.630
and they were there to watch
the events there as well.
264
00:12:46.630 --> 00:12:48.010
And Luke 23 says,
265
00:12:48.010 --> 00:12:50.510
and the chief priest and scribes
266
00:12:50.510 --> 00:12:52.718
stood vehemently accused him.
267
00:12:52.718 --> 00:12:56.110
They seized the moment
and started screaming
268
00:12:56.110 --> 00:12:58.390
and yelling uncontrollably.
269
00:12:58.390 --> 00:12:59.440
In fact, the Greek word
270
00:12:59.440 --> 00:13:03.910
that is used here vehemently
means at full pitch,
271
00:13:03.910 --> 00:13:06.280
at full volume, strenuously
272
00:13:06.280 --> 00:13:07.690
or vigorously,
273
00:13:07.690 --> 00:13:12.070
which means these religious
leaders were screaming
274
00:13:12.070 --> 00:13:13.510
their heads off.
275
00:13:13.510 --> 00:13:15.310
That's literally what it means.
276
00:13:15.310 --> 00:13:18.490
They were screaming some
miracle worker, you are,
277
00:13:18.490 --> 00:13:19.540
you have no power.
278
00:13:19.540 --> 00:13:22.120
You are a fraud. If
you can work a miracle,
279
00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:24.490
why don't you work a miracle right now?
280
00:13:24.490 --> 00:13:27.550
You're nothing but a charlatan.
281
00:13:27.550 --> 00:13:29.140
They literally lost control
282
00:13:29.140 --> 00:13:30.910
and were screaming their heads off.
283
00:13:30.910 --> 00:13:32.110
And then Herod
284
00:13:32.110 --> 00:13:35.020
and his men of war stepped
into enter into the fray.
285
00:13:35.020 --> 00:13:38.710
And we find in Luke 23:11
286
00:13:38.710 --> 00:13:42.490
that Pilate gave the order for his men of war to begin
287
00:13:42.490 --> 00:13:44.440
to humiliate and to heckle
288
00:13:44.440 --> 00:13:45.850
Jesus. The verse says,
289
00:13:45.850 --> 00:13:49.630
and Herod with his men of war, set him at naught
290
00:13:49.630 --> 00:13:53.620
and mocked him and arrayed
him in a gorgeous robe
291
00:13:53.620 --> 00:13:57.820
and sent him again to Pilate.
292
00:13:57.820 --> 00:14:01.240
But notice it says in 23:11 -
293
00:14:01.240 --> 00:14:04.180
and Herod with his men of war.. Who are these men of war?
294
00:14:04.180 --> 00:14:07.690
Men of war, in the Greek text depicts a small detachment
295
00:14:07.690 --> 00:14:11.800
of soldiers who were
Herod's personal bodyguards.
296
00:14:11.800 --> 00:14:13.750
Herod was a low level king.
297
00:14:13.750 --> 00:14:15.910
He was supposed to be very dignified,
298
00:14:15.910 --> 00:14:19.150
and these bodyguards were
supposed to be very dignified.
299
00:14:19.150 --> 00:14:22.990
But now we find they began
to descend into horrible,
300
00:14:22.990 --> 00:14:24.610
atrocious behavior.
301
00:14:24.610 --> 00:14:27.160
The Bible says they set him at not
302
00:14:27.160 --> 00:14:29.380
and listen to what the Greek means. Those words,
303
00:14:29.380 --> 00:14:34.060
to set at nought mean to make
one out to be nothing -
304
00:14:34.060 --> 00:14:35.890
which means - these bodyguards begin
305
00:14:35.890 --> 00:14:38.110
to say you are just nothing.
306
00:14:38.110 --> 00:14:39.430
They begin to debase him
307
00:14:39.430 --> 00:14:43.180
and to denigrate him. It means to make light of,
308
00:14:43.180 --> 00:14:47.710
to belittle, to disdain, to disregard,
309
00:14:47.710 --> 00:14:52.220
to despise or to treat with
maliciousness and contempt.
310
00:14:52.220 --> 00:14:55.250
Now Herod's bodyguard enter into the fray
311
00:14:55.250 --> 00:14:58.040
and they begin to treat Jesus so horribly.
312
00:14:58.040 --> 00:15:01.520
And in fact, the verse goes on to say they mocked him.
313
00:15:01.520 --> 00:15:04.100
And the word mocked is a
Greek word, which means
314
00:15:04.100 --> 00:15:07.340
to play a game, they begin
to play games with Jesus.
315
00:15:07.340 --> 00:15:10.580
And this word mocked was
often used for playing a game
316
00:15:10.580 --> 00:15:13.250
with children or to amuse a crowd
317
00:15:13.250 --> 00:15:17.630
by impersonating someone in
a silly and exaggerated way.
318
00:15:17.630 --> 00:15:20.313
It was used to depict a game of charades
319
00:15:20.313 --> 00:15:21.988
when someone intended
320
00:15:21.988 --> 00:15:26.330
to comically portray or even
to make fun of someone else.
321
00:15:26.330 --> 00:15:28.221
So Herod Antipas,
322
00:15:28.221 --> 00:15:31.246
this low level king with his bodyguards begin
323
00:15:31.246 --> 00:15:34.520
to mockingly impersonate Jesus.
324
00:15:34.520 --> 00:15:36.380
They were hamming it up.
325
00:15:36.380 --> 00:15:39.590
They turned this moment
into a moment of comedy,
326
00:15:39.590 --> 00:15:44.590
acting like they were healing
the sick, mocking Jesus
327
00:15:44.600 --> 00:15:45.800
lying on the floor
328
00:15:45.800 --> 00:15:49.610
and quivering as if demons
were being cast out of them
329
00:15:49.610 --> 00:15:53.000
or if they were being
liberated from demonic control,
330
00:15:53.000 --> 00:15:54.500
acting as if they were blind.
331
00:15:54.500 --> 00:15:58.580
But while suddenly now they
could see; it was all a game
332
00:15:58.580 --> 00:16:03.500
of charades intended to mimic
and to make fun of Jesus.
333
00:16:03.500 --> 00:16:06.350
And then in Luke 23:11 it says,
334
00:16:06.350 --> 00:16:09.320
and they arrayed him in a gorgeous robe.
335
00:16:09.320 --> 00:16:12.470
The word array is a Greek word, which means to throw about,
336
00:16:12.470 --> 00:16:16.010
to drape about or to drape
about one's shoulders.
337
00:16:16.010 --> 00:16:18.890
And the words gorgeous robe depicts a robe
338
00:16:18.890 --> 00:16:21.140
that is resplendent, glistening
339
00:16:21.140 --> 00:16:25.910
or magnificent, frequently
used to depict garments made
340
00:16:25.910 --> 00:16:29.750
of sumptuous brightly colored materials.
341
00:16:29.750 --> 00:16:32.510
And in all likelihood, this was a garment
342
00:16:32.510 --> 00:16:34.970
that had previously been worn by a politician
343
00:16:34.970 --> 00:16:38.030
because these were precisely
the kinds of garments
344
00:16:38.030 --> 00:16:40.580
that were warned by politicians.
345
00:16:40.580 --> 00:16:42.800
So now they've draped Jesus in this robe.
346
00:16:42.800 --> 00:16:45.200
And when you come to Luke 23:11, it says,
347
00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:49.250
Herod sent him again to Pilate.
348
00:16:49.250 --> 00:16:51.710
And when he showed up in pilot's court,
349
00:16:51.710 --> 00:16:55.070
he was dressed in this brightly colored robe
350
00:16:55.070 --> 00:16:59.600
and it was the equivalent
of saying, this is no king,
351
00:16:59.600 --> 00:17:02.930
it's only another candidate, a pretender
352
00:17:02.930 --> 00:17:06.470
who thinks he's running for some kind of office.
353
00:17:06.470 --> 00:17:10.520
That's why Jesus reappears in Pilate's court in this
354
00:17:10.520 --> 00:17:13.250
sumptuous, brightly colored clothing,
355
00:17:13.250 --> 00:17:15.440
which probably was the garment
356
00:17:15.440 --> 00:17:17.210
of a former political official.
357
00:17:18.050 --> 00:17:20.930
But when Jesus ended up in Pilate's court,
358
00:17:20.930 --> 00:17:25.670
he was charged even
though he was not guilty.
359
00:17:25.670 --> 00:17:28.790
Pilate assembled the chief priest and the rulers together
360
00:17:28.790 --> 00:17:32.570
and he told them in Luke 23:14-16,
361
00:17:32.570 --> 00:17:34.550
You brought this man unto me
362
00:17:34.550 --> 00:17:36.260
as one that perverted the people,
363
00:17:36.260 --> 00:17:40.370
and behold, I having
examined him before you
364
00:17:40.370 --> 00:17:42.920
and remember, Pilate was the highest legal
365
00:17:42.920 --> 00:17:44.090
authority in the land.
366
00:17:44.090 --> 00:17:45.470
Now he has examined him
367
00:17:45.470 --> 00:17:48.860
and he says, I have found no
fault in this man touching
368
00:17:48.860 --> 00:17:51.840
those things where if you accuse him, no
369
00:17:51.840 --> 00:17:55.890
nor yet Herod for I sent you to him and lo,
370
00:17:55.890 --> 00:17:58.950
nothing worthy of death is done unto him.
371
00:17:58.950 --> 00:18:03.780
I will therefore chastise
him and release him.
372
00:18:03.780 --> 00:18:07.440
Pilate was the chief legal
authority of the land.
373
00:18:07.440 --> 00:18:09.600
He knew Roman law
374
00:18:09.600 --> 00:18:12.330
and from a legal standpoint,
there was no reason
375
00:18:12.330 --> 00:18:13.860
to prosecute Jesus
376
00:18:13.860 --> 00:18:17.310
because Jesus had not committed any crime.
377
00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:21.180
But Herod even arrived at the same conclusion.
378
00:18:21.180 --> 00:18:23.790
He also knew Jesus had
committed to no crime,
379
00:18:23.790 --> 00:18:26.130
and Pilate said, let me
make a deal with you.
380
00:18:26.130 --> 00:18:27.570
Instead of crucifying him
381
00:18:27.570 --> 00:18:31.590
and kill him, I'll offer to chastise him.
382
00:18:31.590 --> 00:18:34.560
But chastising Jesus was not going
383
00:18:34.560 --> 00:18:38.340
to satisfy the bloody appetite
of these religious leaders.
384
00:18:38.340 --> 00:18:40.560
They cried out, crucify him.
385
00:18:40.560 --> 00:18:44.910
We read this in Luke 23:20-21, which says, Pilate
386
00:18:44.910 --> 00:18:48.720
therefore willing to release
Jesus spake again unto them.
387
00:18:48.720 --> 00:18:53.430
But they cried saying,
crucify him, crucify him.
388
00:18:53.430 --> 00:18:57.900
In verse 22, Pilate asked,
why? What evil has he done?
389
00:18:57.900 --> 00:19:00.060
I found no cause of death in him.
390
00:19:00.060 --> 00:19:02.010
I will therefore chastise him
391
00:19:02.010 --> 00:19:05.760
and let him go in verse 23
says, and they were instant.
392
00:19:05.760 --> 00:19:08.790
This word instant in Greek means they literally piled on top
393
00:19:08.790 --> 00:19:13.290
of him with loud voices requiring that he might be crucified
394
00:19:13.290 --> 00:19:17.070
and the voices of them and of
the chief priests prevailed.
395
00:19:17.070 --> 00:19:21.180
And when you come to John 19:12, we find
396
00:19:21.180 --> 00:19:24.060
to finish this quarrel,
they threatened Pilate
397
00:19:24.060 --> 00:19:26.700
and said, if thou let this man go,
398
00:19:26.700 --> 00:19:29.970
thou are not Caesar's friend; whosoever maketh
399
00:19:29.970 --> 00:19:34.290
to himself a king, speak against Caesar.
400
00:19:34.290 --> 00:19:38.040
And now we find that Pilate is in a very big fix.
401
00:19:38.040 --> 00:19:40.020
He doesn't know how to get out of this.
402
00:19:40.020 --> 00:19:42.030
He doesn't really wanna prosecute Jesus,
403
00:19:42.030 --> 00:19:44.730
but he knows if he
doesn't prosecute Jesus,
404
00:19:44.730 --> 00:19:47.250
he could get in trouble with Caesar.
405
00:19:47.250 --> 00:19:50.400
So when you come to Matthew 27:24, the Bible says,
406
00:19:50.400 --> 00:19:53.880
when Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing
407
00:19:53.880 --> 00:19:57.540
but rather a tumult was made, he took water
408
00:19:57.540 --> 00:19:59.040
and wash his hands
409
00:19:59.040 --> 00:20:02.670
before the multitude saying,
I'm innocent of the blood
410
00:20:02.670 --> 00:20:04.470
of this just person.
411
00:20:04.470 --> 00:20:06.090
You see to it.
412
00:20:06.090 --> 00:20:09.780
Here we have an illustration of Pilate in that moment
413
00:20:09.780 --> 00:20:12.720
who literally is washing his hands.
414
00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:16.020
We have to understand that
water was a cleansing agent,
415
00:20:17.040 --> 00:20:19.950
and at that particular
moment in the first century,
416
00:20:19.950 --> 00:20:22.230
it was believed that the washing of hands
417
00:20:22.230 --> 00:20:24.840
with water was a symbolic statement
418
00:20:24.840 --> 00:20:27.240
of washing away one's guilt.
419
00:20:27.240 --> 00:20:30.300
And Pilate was literally
saying, I am not guilty
420
00:20:30.300 --> 00:20:34.050
of the blood of this
just man, you see to it.
421
00:20:34.050 --> 00:20:37.680
And he gave the order for Jesus to be scourged
422
00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:40.770
and he gave the order
for Jesus to be crucified
423
00:20:40.770 --> 00:20:44.520
because he could not prevail
against the tumult which was
424
00:20:44.520 --> 00:20:48.700
made by the religious
leaders in Jerusalem.
425
00:20:48.700 --> 00:20:51.310
What an amazing story.
426
00:20:51.310 --> 00:20:55.930
The pilot washed his hands,
he caved to the cries
427
00:20:55.930 --> 00:20:57.220
of the religious leaders,
428
00:20:57.220 --> 00:21:01.390
and in that moment, he decided to save himself
429
00:21:01.390 --> 00:21:04.510
and to crucify Jesus instead.
430
00:21:05.440 --> 00:21:08.320
But my friends, there
is so much more for us
431
00:21:08.320 --> 00:21:12.610
to understand about Easter
The Rest of the Story.
432
00:21:12.610 --> 00:21:14.290
We've got so much more to cover,
433
00:21:14.290 --> 00:21:18.040
and tomorrow we're going
to see what happens next
434
00:21:18.040 --> 00:21:20.710
and it is simply going to be amazing.
435
00:21:20.710 --> 00:21:24.010
Please do not miss tomorrow's episode;
436
00:21:24.010 --> 00:21:25.990
but I've got more to say to you. But first,
437
00:21:25.990 --> 00:21:28.360
watch this. Are you tired
438
00:21:28.360 --> 00:21:31.090
of the same watered down Easter sermons?
439
00:21:31.090 --> 00:21:34.810
Rick Renner has a solution. In his new series, Easter -
440
00:21:34.810 --> 00:21:36.190
The Rest of the Story,
441
00:21:36.190 --> 00:21:38.860
Rick explores the raw unfiltered aspects
442
00:21:38.860 --> 00:21:40.570
of Jesus's sacrifice.
443
00:21:40.570 --> 00:21:42.070
This series is an opportunity
444
00:21:42.070 --> 00:21:45.580
to rediscover the profound spiritual significance of Easter
445
00:21:45.580 --> 00:21:47.770
and its lasting impact on our lives
446
00:21:47.770 --> 00:21:51.340
today. In this powerful 15-part series, you'll learn:
447
00:21:51.340 --> 00:21:54.820
how many soldiers it took to arrest Jesus: the reality
448
00:21:54.820 --> 00:21:58.810
of Judas Kiss of betrayal: the horror of a Roman surging:
449
00:21:58.810 --> 00:22:00.250
the miraculous details
450
00:22:00.250 --> 00:22:02.830
of Jesus' resurrection - available in digital
451

This teaching holds the life-changing revelation found in
453
00:22:09.190 --> 00:22:11.740
the details of Jesus' death, burial
454
00:22:11.740 --> 00:22:14.980
and resurrection, which are
the cornerstone of our faith.
455
00:22:14.980 --> 00:22:17.440
His death was not just a tragic event,
456
00:22:17.440 --> 00:22:21.070
it was a purposeful act of
love that fulfilled God's plan
457
00:22:21.070 --> 00:22:23.170
for redemption. By taking on the weight
458
00:22:23.170 --> 00:22:24.400
of our transgressions,
459
00:22:24.400 --> 00:22:27.340
Jesus bridged the gap between sinful humanity
460
00:22:27.340 --> 00:22:28.600
and a holy God.
461
00:22:28.600 --> 00:22:31.210

472
00:23:02.620 --> 00:23:03.670
Hey, this is Rick Renner
473
00:23:03.670 --> 00:23:06.640
and I am in the production
fulfillment part
474
00:23:06.640 --> 00:23:08.770
of the Tulsa Ministry headquarters,
475
00:23:08.770 --> 00:23:10.390
and I just love to come here
476
00:23:10.390 --> 00:23:13.930
and see all these teaching resources.
477
00:23:13.930 --> 00:23:18.610
My friends, we send them out
by 10 thousands every month
478
00:23:18.610 --> 00:23:19.630
and every year.
479
00:23:19.630 --> 00:23:21.730
It is just amazing
480
00:23:21.730 --> 00:23:26.110
and it's a great honor that anyone would want our teaching.
481
00:23:26.110 --> 00:23:28.720
It's very humbling and I'm very grateful
482
00:23:28.720 --> 00:23:30.190
that God is using our ministry
483
00:23:30.190 --> 00:23:33.550
and our teaching to strengthen
lives around the world.
484
00:23:33.550 --> 00:23:38.260
And our partners are the
ones helping us to do it.
485
00:23:38.260 --> 00:23:41.590
And right now we're trying
to pay off this facility
486
00:23:41.590 --> 00:23:45.020
so we can release more
funds to taking the teaching
487
00:23:45.020 --> 00:23:46.970
of the Bible to the ends of the earth.
488
00:23:46.970 --> 00:23:49.820
We've already paid off 84%
489
00:23:49.820 --> 00:23:51.770
of our Ministry Expansion Project,
490
00:23:51.770 --> 00:23:53.120
but we'd like to finish it.
491
00:23:53.120 --> 00:23:55.850
And if you're not a part of
the Giving team yet today,
492
00:23:55.850 --> 00:23:57.980
I want to ask you to join our giving team
493
00:23:57.980 --> 00:24:00.530
so we can pay off this facility
494
00:24:00.530 --> 00:24:04.250
and release all those funds
into taking the teaching
495
00:24:04.250 --> 00:24:07.040
of the Bible to the ends of the earth.
496
00:24:13.970 --> 00:24:15.110
Well, today we've been looking at
497
00:24:15.110 --> 00:24:16.520
what happened when Jesus stood
498
00:24:16.520 --> 00:24:19.430
before Herod Antipas in Jerusalem.
499
00:24:19.430 --> 00:24:22.370
Herod was in town to celebrate the Passover
500
00:24:22.370 --> 00:24:23.840
with the Jewish people.
501
00:24:23.840 --> 00:24:27.350
And when Pilate found out
that Jesus was from Galilee,
502
00:24:27.350 --> 00:24:31.280
which was Herod's jurisdiction, he shipped Jesus across town
503
00:24:31.280 --> 00:24:33.620
to stand trial in front of Herod.
504
00:24:33.620 --> 00:24:36.440
And Herod demanded that
Jesus work a miracle,
505
00:24:36.440 --> 00:24:40.820
but Jesus refused to
work a miracle on demand.
506
00:24:40.820 --> 00:24:44.030
And Herod Antipas became so infuriated that he
507
00:24:44.030 --> 00:24:47.630
and his bodyguards begin to
denigrate and heckle Jesus.
508
00:24:47.630 --> 00:24:49.310
They treated him horribly
509
00:24:49.310 --> 00:24:52.370
and then they shipped him
back across town to Pilate,
510
00:24:52.370 --> 00:24:56.030
where Pilate ends up with
a problem of Jesus again;
511
00:24:56.030 --> 00:24:59.840
he can find no causable crime worthy
512
00:24:59.840 --> 00:25:01.730
of death.
513
00:25:01.730 --> 00:25:04.190
So Pilate finally washes his hands
514
00:25:04.190 --> 00:25:07.340
and says, I am free of
the guilt of this man
515
00:25:07.340 --> 00:25:10.730
and gives the order
for Jesus to be scoured
516
00:25:10.730 --> 00:25:14.150
and Jesus ultimately to be crucified.
517
00:25:14.150 --> 00:25:16.441
And when we come back in tomorrow's program,
518
00:25:16.441 --> 00:25:17.999
we're going to see
519
00:25:17.999 --> 00:25:20.780
what it was like for an individual to be scourged
520
00:25:20.780 --> 00:25:24.470
and why Jesus took those stripes on his back.
521
00:25:24.470 --> 00:25:26.270
It is so very important.
522
00:25:26.270 --> 00:25:29.510
Please do not miss tomorrow's program,
523
00:25:29.510 --> 00:25:32.030

00:25:38.660 --> 00:25:40.610

528
00:25:40.610 --> 00:25:42.020
So call or write.
529
00:25:42.020 --> 00:25:44.120
We're waiting to hear from you right now,
530
00:25:44.120 --> 00:25:45.830
but put your hand on your heart
531
00:25:45.830 --> 00:25:47.720
and I wanna pray for you now.
532
00:25:47.720 --> 00:25:51.500
Father, I thank you that Jesus
was the faithful lamb of God
533
00:25:51.500 --> 00:25:53.630
to take away the sin of the world.
534
00:25:53.630 --> 00:25:56.480
We thank you that he stayed on assignment,
535
00:25:56.480 --> 00:25:58.610
and Father, we asked for the same power
536
00:25:58.610 --> 00:26:00.290
that we could stay on track with
537
00:26:00.290 --> 00:26:02.900
what you've called each of us to do.
538
00:26:02.900 --> 00:26:05.420
In Jesus' name - Amen.
539
00:26:06.410 --> 00:26:07.760
Hey, I'll see you tomorrow,
540
00:26:07.760 --> 00:26:11.420
but until then, remember Ecclesiastes 8:4 says,
541
00:26:11.420 --> 00:26:14.810
"Where the word of a king is, there is power."
542
00:26:17.750 --> 00:26:19.820

556
00:26:57.720 --> 00:26:59.700

thrilled to see you,
558

559
00:27:04.470 --> 00:27:06.960
or give us a call to make
sure none of the dates
560
00:27:06.960 --> 00:27:09.450
or times have changed.
561
00:27:09.450 --> 00:27:11.700
If you've never received
Jesus as your Savior
562
00:27:11.700 --> 00:27:16.110
and Lord, now is the time for
you to experience a new life
563
00:27:16.110 --> 00:27:18.270
Jesus has to give you.
564
00:27:18.270 --> 00:27:22.320
Pray this prayer with me right now - Lord,
565
00:27:22.320 --> 00:27:26.370
I repent of my sin and
receive you as my Savior
566
00:27:26.370 --> 00:27:29.310
and Lord. Wash away my sin
567
00:27:29.310 --> 00:27:32.340
and make me completely new.
568
00:27:32.340 --> 00:27:36.120
I thank you that my sin is removed
569
00:27:36.120 --> 00:27:41.120
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.
570
00:27:41.670 --> 00:27:45.660
I faithfully promise that
I will serve you as my Lord
571
00:27:45.660 --> 00:27:47.340
for the rest of my life.
572
00:27:48.210 --> 00:27:49.765
