Pastor's Desk - April 2023
During this month we celebrate passion Sunday, Holy week, and Easter. This season marks for me the treatment of the innocent and the triumph of good over evil.
Indeed, the arrest, trial and murder of Jesus by Roman leaders, aided and abetted by his own Jewish religious leaders, is nothing less than barbarous, cruel treatment of the innocent. Pilate’s wife stoutly warned him from a dream received to have nothing to do with that man as he was innocent. Pilate, instead of protecting the innocent, washed his hands of any possible accusation and supposedly of any involvement.
