Dave Osborne preaches Luke 23: 26-43 on November 9, 2025 at Christ Presbyterian Church.

When Jesus returns to Pilate, both rulers affirm His innocence, yet the crowd—stirred by corrupt leaders—demands Barabbas, the rebel, be freed instead. In choosing a violent insurrectionist over the Prince of Peace, the people reveal humanity's tragic preference for earthly power over spiritual deliverance.Key theme: Humanity exchanges the true Son of God for a counterfeit “son of the father” (Barabbas).

Christ's Greatest Trophy - Luke 23 - Wayne Olling

"What does Luke 23 reveal about human justice versus divine justice? When Jesus says, ‘Father, forgive them' from the cross, how do you wrestle with his mercy in a world—and a courtroom—so focused on guilt and consequences? Why do you think it matters that the resurrection is not just an event but something that reshapes how we see the whole story? In today's episode, Emma Dotter and Watermark member, Rowe Stipe talk answer these questions and talk through Luke 23-24.

"In this episode, we reflect on the final moments of Jesus on the cross — the darkness over the land, the torn temple veil, and His death. We witness the devotion of the women who faithfully watched from a distance, and Joseph of Arimathea's courageous act of burial. Join us as we explore the meaning of these events, the faithfulness honored by God, and the hope we have in Jesus' sacrifice."

Rev. Cyril A. Stevens – Sermon 0940A recorded on September 30, 1984 teaching from Luke 23:26-24:15 – Words That Seem Like Nonsense. Pastor Cyril A. Stevens explores the resurrection of Jesus as chronicled in the Gospel of Luke, focusing on the disciples’ initial disbelief of the women’s testimony, which they dismissed as “nonsense.” Pastor Stevens…

In Luke 23:26–43, Jesus walks the road to Calvary — bruised, yet full of mercy. Along the way, He comforts the weeping women, prays for His enemies, and offers eternal life to a dying thief. Even on the cross, His grace shines brightest. This message reminds us that salvation is not earned but received by faith — the same promise Jesus gave that day: “Today you will be with Me in paradise.”

Defining Moments: The Burial of Jesus ChristLuke 23:50-56The Village Chapel - 10/12/2025Each of our lives is shaped by what we might call “defining moments”—those hinge points that change the course of our life in significant ways. We can see some of these moments coming. Others we only recognize when looking back, and we can see the gracious hand of God weaving through our good and bad choices, our challenges, our joys, and our pain—forming us, changing us, preparing us for what comes next.One such moment came at the burial of Jesus by Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus. What looked like the end was actually the beginning. What seemed like defeat would become the seed of resurrection faith. Their defining moment was not found in their strength, but in their surrender—by stepping out into the open, identifying with the crucified Christ, and finding life in His death.Sometimes, our greatest turning points come when we finally step out of the shadows and into the light of Christ—when we stop worrying about our own glory and begin living for His.Join Pastor Jim as he walks us through the burial of Jesus, one of the defining moments in redemption history.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

The Village Chapel - 10/05/2025Why did Jesus die? Was it betrayal, political corruption, mob injustice—or was there something deeper? In Luke 23:26–49 we come to the very heart of the Christian faith: the cross of Christ. Here, in one of history's most pivotal moments, we see God's justice, love, wisdom, and power converge. The crucifixion is not just a tragic ending—it is God's eternal plan to bring redemption, forgiveness, and new life to all who will believe.In this message, “Why Did Jesus Die? The Message and Meaning of the Cross”, we'll explore the predictions of the cross, the people surrounding it, the paradox that Jesus would not save Himself so He could save us, and the power of His finished work. Whether you're asking questions about Christianity or longing to go deeper in your faith, this passage reveals the astounding truth: Jesus took our place so that we might find life in Him.Join Pastor Jim as we stand at the foot of the cross in Luke 23 and discover why the death of Jesus changes everything—for you, for me, for the world.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

Beauty for Ashes, Diamonds for DirtLuke 23:1-25The Village Chapel - 09/28/2025In the early morning hours of what we now call Good Friday, Jesus was taken by the religious leaders to stand trial before Pontius Pilate. In Luke's account, Jesus speaks only five words when he responds to Pilate's question, “Are you the King of the Jews?” and says, “It is as you say.” We come to a crossroads in this account: Courage and cowardice converge; actual authority and power are displayed through silent suffering; and Jesus, being entirely innocent, willingly exchanges his life for the life of a convicted criminal and takes his place on the cross. What looks like a victory for Satan ends up being the masterstroke of God's Divine plan of rescue and redemption for the human race. Join us as we study Luke 23:1-25, and read about the Great Exchange, our sin for the righteousness of Christ!To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

Luke chapter 23 commences with Jesus before the Roman Governor Pilate, who wants nothing to do with the trumped-up charges that had been levelled against our Lord. Pilate pronounces Jesus innocent and on hearing that he was from Galilee felt he could evade any responsibility by sending Jesus to Herod. Herod had been curious about Jesus for some time. Herod questions Jesus and receives no answers. Herod reverts to mocking and handing our Lord over to be brutalised at the hands of his soldiers. Then having found no fault in our Lord, Herod returns him to Pilate - a partial reconciliation occurs between Herod and Pilate - the Governor. Pilate once again declares Jesus innocent, but causes him to be brutally scourged (this was sometimes called the intermediate death - and many a man died under the barbaric scourge). This barbaric act fails to evoke any pity from our Master's foes. For the third time Jesus is pronounced innocent. But the chief priests stir up the crowd to bay for Jesus' blood. Pilate is forced into making a decision he did not want to make. Our Lord is delivered to be crucified, and Barabbas is released. Jesus was so weak that the Romans pressed Simon of Cyrene to carry his crucifixion post. This man and his two sons in future years became disciples. The women wept to behold our Lord, but he tells them not to weep for him, but for the miseries that would fall on them. Jesus is crucified between two thieves, quite possibly Barabbas' followers. The place of his crucifixion was that of a skull; again, in all probability that of Goliath's skull. The soldiers gamble for his clothes, as had been prophesied in Psalm 22. Jesus, himself implores his Father to forgive them as they knew not what they were doing. One of the two thieves rails upon the Lord. The other turns in repentance to Jesus and asks Jesus to remember him when Jesus comes into his kingdom. Very likely the second thief understood the Gospel of the Kingdom. This thief is given the assurance of a place in Christ's Kingdom. Jesus' words were that the thief would be with the Lord in that day. Neither were in paradise that day for Jesus spent three days in the tomb. Our Lord suffered the taunting of sinners, by masterfully controlling himself and being the Victor verses Colossians 2 verses 11-15. About 3pm Jesus dies calmly causing a hardened centurion to exclaim that surely this man was the Son of God. For three hours the Almighty had veiled the scene in darkness, as a sign of His indignation at the wicked doings of those who crucified the Lord of glory. On his death there was a great earthquake, and the veil of the temple was torn by God from top to bottom. The law was now finished, and Christ has accomplished the opening of a new and living way. The Lord Jesus' remarkable control of himself under extreme provocation provides a wonderful example to us as Peter comments in 1 Peter 2 verses 20-25. A rich counsellor of the Sanhedrin begged Pilate for Jesus' body. Pilate enquires if our Lord has died and then hands our Lord's body to Joseph and Nicodemus who take it to Joseph's new and unused garden tomb. The women follow to see where Jesus was laid and to where they would come with the spices, they would purchase to embalm the Lord's body. The women then rest on the Sabbath day. This Sabbath day was a high Sabbath.

Daily Dose of Hope September 24, 2025   Scripture – Luke 23   Prayer:  Lord Jesus, We come before you this morning, thanking you for a new day.  Lord, you are good and we rejoice in your holy and powerful name.  As we begin our day, Lord, help us focus on you.  Help us set aside our scattered thoughts and focus on your Word and what you want us to learn today.  We get so distracted and self-consumed.  Forgive us for that, Lord.  In these next few moments of silence, help us have laser focus on your voice... In Your Powerful Name, Amen.   Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, the devotional/podcast that complements the New Hope Church daily Bible reading plan.  We are currently working our way through a deep dive into the Gospels and Acts.  Today, we are deep diving into Luke 23.    Today, we start with Jesus before Pilate and Herod.  Both Roman men believe that Jesus  is innocent.  Pilate actually tries to get the people to release Jesus, but the crowd is stirred up.  They want blood.  Jesus' innocence is not the point to them.  They are looking for a way to get rid of this trouble-maker.  And these men are not willing to stand up for what's right.    There was a man named Simon from Cyrene who was passing by and they forced him to carry the cross.  Cyrene was on the tip of Africa so this man was far from home!  And here he was, just going about his business, and he is enlisted, or more like seized, to carry the cross of the Savior of the world.  I'm guessing that Jesus' physical body was incredibly weak and bloody by this point.  And Simon walked by him, carrying the cross that would serve to execute Jesus but also save all humanity from their sin. We don't know what happened to Simon after the crucifixion.  He isn't mentioned again in Scripture.  But my guess is that his life was never the same again.  An encounter with Jesus is always life-changing.   The text in which Jesus dies on the cross is called the Good Friday scripture.  It may seem odd that we would call the day that Jesus was crucified and died “good.” Apparently, the term came into common use in the 1200s because for us, it was a truly good day, as Jesus became the final sacrifice for all sin for all people for all time. As the full expression of God's love for us, Jesus voluntarily gave his life so that we could be reconciled to holy God. It is very much good.   There is a lot to be said about the crucifixion but I wanted to highlight something in particular.  Right before Jesus breathed his last breath on the cross, the curtain in the Temple was torn down the middle. This is the curtain that separated the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place (the Holiest of Holies) where the ark of the covenant was kept and the presence of God remained. When the curtain tore, it was a sign that the New Covenant was instituted. Because of Jesus' sacrifice (the final sacrifice for sin), those who believe in him can now go directly to the throne of God's grace. When holy God looks at us, he doesn't see our sinfulness but the blood of Christ. Thus, there are no more barriers that can separate us from God.   I'd like to close today with a prayer that is an adaptation of Hebrews 10:19-25: Thank you, Lord, that we can boldly enter heaven's Most Holy Place because of the blood of Jesus. By his death, Jesus opened a new and life-giving way through the curtain into the Most Holy Place. And since we have a great High Priest who rules over God's house, let us go right into the presence of God with sincere hearts fully trusting him. For our guilty consciences have been sprinkled with Christ's blood to make us clean, and our bodies have been washed with pure water. Lord, help us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works. And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near. Amen.   Blessings, Pastor Vicki

We walk through Luke 23:50-24:12.

Welcome to the Daily Disciple Podcast. As daily disciples, we seek to adore and follow Jesus, our teacher, into the abundant life that he offers. Because we find Jesus irresistible, fascinating, and incredibly practical, we want to be students of his scripture. Today's episode is found in Luke 23 "Offended"

In this heartfelt message, Pastor Aaron walks with us through the hard but life-giving journey of forgiveness. Looking at Jesus' words on the cross, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing,” Aaron invites us to face the reality of our wounds, release the grip of anger, and rest in the hope of God's perfect justice. If you're carrying the weight of unforgiveness or longing for deeper healing, this message offers honest encouragement and the reminder that Jesus meets us right where we are.

Open veil, closed tomb- When Jesus died on the cross the veil in the temple was torn in two. Every follower of Jesus has the same access to His presence because of that work. Joseph of Arimathea risked his reputation for a dead Jesus. We now serve a living Christ.
