Podcasts about Matthew 27

Sometimes it will feel impossible to follow Jesus because of the costs that might be associated with following Him. But in Matthew 27, Jesus goes first into some of the hardest things that we can imagine, showing us that it is possible to follow Him and still find the life that He promised us.

Bible Study with Pastor Gary Terry of LCBC.

This sermon explores the trial of Jesus before Pontius Pilate and the contrasting responses of Pilate and Barabbas. It explains the historical background of Pilate, a Roman governor with a strained relationship with the Jewish people, and outlines the multiple phases of Jesus' trial before Jewish and Roman authorities. Although Pilate repeatedly recognized Jesus' innocence and even received a warning from his wife, he ultimately chose political convenience over truth and handed Jesus over for crucifixion. The message highlights Pilate as an example of someone who knew about Jesus but failed to commit to Him, emphasizing that knowledge alone is not enough—each person must decide whether Jesus is truly Lord. The sermon also focuses on Barabbas, a guilty criminal who was released while Jesus took his place, illustrating the Christian doctrine of grace and substitutionary atonement. Just as Barabbas was freed because Jesus was condemned, humanity receives undeserved forgiveness and salvation because Christ bore the punishment for sin. The central theme is that Pilate missed recognizing and following Jesus despite knowing the truth, while Barabbas unknowingly became the first recipient of the grace made possible through Christ's sacrifice, demonstrating God's love and redemption for all people.

Matthew 27

Second Baptist Church - Houston, TX | Matthew's gospel puts forth two main themes: prophetic fulfillment and God's kingdom. Over the first 26 chapters, those themes unfold like parallel tracks — mirroring one another, carrying the freight of the plot line, and carrying the readers on a journey towards a clear destination.  But by chapter 27, those tracks powerfully converge, where the prophetic and kingdom themes come together in one moment: the cross. There, we see God's ancient symbols come to substance. And then we see how everyone responds. 

This sermon on Matthew 27:1–10 examines the corruption surrounding Jesus' condemnation, the tragic fate of Judas, and the sovereignty of God working through human evil. It highlights how the Jewish leaders violated their own legal standards through a secret nighttime trial, false testimony, and a predetermined verdict, contrasting their hypocrisy with Jesus' innocence and righteousness. The message then focuses on Judas, who felt deep sorrow and acknowledged his sin but sought relief through the religious system rather than through Christ. Drawing a distinction between worldly sorrow and godly sorrow, the sermon argues that Judas' remorse led him to despair because he placed his hope in the law and corrupt leaders, while Peter's failure ultimately led him back to Jesus, demonstrating true repentance that results in salvation. The sermon further explores why God allowed betrayal and injustice, presenting them as evidence of Christ's kingship, human freedom, and God's sovereign plan to fulfill prophecy and accomplish redemption. Ultimately, the message emphasizes that no religious system, personal reform, or worldly pursuit can save; salvation is found only in Jesus Christ. The darkness of Judas' betrayal, the corruption of the religious leaders, and the suffering of Christ all serve to magnify God's grace, showing that despite humanity's failures, God's redemptive purpose prevails and invites people to run to Jesus rather than trust in the broken things of the world.

This sermon examines the contrasting failures of Judas and Peter in the final hours before Jesus' crucifixion, emphasizing that failure is a universal human reality but does not have to be the end of anyone's story. Drawing from Isaiah 53, the message reminds believers that all people have gone astray and that Jesus bore the sins of all humanity, including both Peter and Judas. While both men were called by Jesus, witnessed His miracles, preached the kingdom, and experienced significant spiritual opportunities, their responses to failure were radically different. Peter pursued Jesus, trusted Him despite his weaknesses, and responded to his denial with humility, godly sorrow, and repentance. Judas, however, followed his own plans, betrayed Christ for personal gain, and responded to his failure with remorse rather than true repentance. The sermon distinguishes remorse—feeling bad about the consequences of sin—from repentance, which involves turning to God for forgiveness and restoration. Judas attempted to fix his problem through human means and ultimately fell into despair, while Peter allowed his failure to drive him back to Jesus. Through Christ's restoration of Peter in John 21, the message highlights that God's goal is not merely forgiveness but restoration and renewed purpose. Peter's failure did not disqualify him from ministry; instead, God used him powerfully as a leader of the early church. The central lesson is that while failure is inevitable, what matters most is how a person responds to it. Pride and self-reliance lead to destruction, but humility, repentance, and surrender to Christ lead to forgiveness, restoration, and a future shaped by God's grace.

Jesus continues to hang on the cross. He suffered for the sins of mankind. He expires, and is taken down from the cross. His body is prepared for burial, and He is placed in a tomb. Guards are set, and the tomb is sealed. Friday comes to a conclusion with Jesus dead and buried.

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on the Daily Radio Bible, a daily Bible‑in‑a‑year podcast with 20‑minute Scripture readings, Christ‑centered devotion, and guided prayer.This daily Bible reading and devotional invites you to live as a citizen of Jesus' kingdom, reconciled, renewed, and deeply loved. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! On this 10th day of May, day 130 in our journey through Scripture, Hunter invites us to open our hearts and minds as we delve into powerful passages from 2 Samuel 18, Psalm 56, and Matthew 27. Today's episode follows the stories of David's sorrow over Absalom, David's psalm of trust amidst trouble, and the profound events of Jesus' trial and crucifixion. Hunter offers insight into Jesus' cry from the cross, challenging traditional interpretations and reminding us of God's unwavering presence—even in our darkest moments. Join us as we reflect on God's Word, lift our hearts in prayer, and walk together in kindness and faith. TODAY'S DEVOTION: He never abandons us—not even in our darkest hours. On the cross, Jesus cried, "My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?" At first glance, it looks like a moment of utter desolation, as if God the Father has turned away from his Son. Many have taught that in this cry, Jesus is forsaken by the Father, or worse still, that God is punishing the Son. But things are not always as they seem. The early church often saw it differently. Jesus is quoting Psalm 22—a psalm that starts with anguish but ends with trust. Like many of David's psalms, it begins with abandonment but always resolves with confession of God's unfailing presence and faithfulness. As the psalm reaches its end, the psalmist declares, "He did not despise or abhor the affliction of the afflicted. He did not turn his face from me but heard when I cried out to him." In the depths of suffering, God does not hide nor forsake, but listens and draws near. So, what does this mean for us? Jesus, in quoting the psalm, enters fully into the depths of human experience—our betrayals, our loneliness, our feelings of abandonment. He knows them all, tasting them as we do. Yet the profound truth is found not just in the cry, but in the assurance that God is present, even when it seems otherwise. Paul declares in 2 Corinthians 5:19 that on the cross, "God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself." There is no division in the Trinity, no rift between the Father and the Son—not then, not ever. And if God did not abandon Jesus in his most desperate hour, he will not abandon you. He is faithful, and his love endures. Let this truth settle deep into your soul. Trust, as Jesus trusted—even when everything in you wishes to surrender to despair. God's love is steadfast. His presence never leaves. You are never beyond the reach of his care. That's a prayer that I have for my own soul. That's a prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's a prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL

[49] But the others said, “Wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to save him.” [50] And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and yielded up his spirit.

In this episode of Rick and Elaine Discuss the Bible, we found ourselves stepping into one of those conversations where everything starts connecting in real time. What began as a continuation of our discussion on Matthew 27 quickly turned into a deep dive through Daniel 12, Luke 16, John 11, and beyond, as we wrestled with what it truly means for the “dead” to rise. Along the way, we explored the idea that resurrection is not simply about bodies coming out of graves, but about people being awakened from spiritual death into life in Christ. When you start tracing that theme through Scripture, especially in the context of the apostolic generation, it begins to feel less like isolated passages and more like a unified story unfolding exactly as it was always meant to.What made this conversation so powerful for us was the realization that so much of what we've been taught to read physically also carries a profound spiritual reality happening at the same time. The language of fire, awakening, separation, and life begins to take on new depth when seen through that lens. We talked about how culture shapes interpretation, how the Spirit leads into truth, and how sometimes we have to be willing to let long-held assumptions be dismantled in order to see what's really there. Our hope is that this episode doesn't just give you answers, but sparks that same fire in you to search, question, and see the beauty of God's Word in a way that feels alive.

In this episode of Rick and Elaine Discuss the Bible, we stepped into one of the strangest and most fascinating moments in all of Scripture: Matthew 27 and the mysterious raising of the saints. What exactly was Matthew showing us when he said tombs were opened and many holy ones appeared after Christ's resurrection? Were literal dead bodies walking around Jerusalem, or was Matthew revealing something deeper about the moment the old world cracked open and the new creation began? We worked slowly through Matthew, Mark, and Luke, noticing what Matthew includes that the others do not, and asking why. That led us into a rich discussion about the torn veil, the shaking earth, split rocks, opened graves, and what all of it might mean in light of Christ's death, resurrection, and the coming life of the Spirit.What unfolded was one of those conversations that starts with a hard text and ends in something deeply personal and beautiful. We talked about what it means to move from earthly to spiritual, from Adam to Christ, from dormant to awakened, and how the cross was not just a historical event, but the great turning point where God's promised life began breaking into the world in a new way. Along the way, we connected Matthew 27 to Pentecost, Luke 4, Isaiah 61, the temple, resurrection, and even our own experience of what it means to be spiritually awakened by the life-giving Spirit of Christ. If you've ever read that passage and thought, What in the world is going on here???

A Complete Exegetical Commentary on the Gospel According to Matthew “Charles H. Spurgeon had a rare insight into the Word of God and spiritual truth. He was a prophet of wonderfully clear vision. He saw beneath the letter to the spirit of divine truth. He was both an example and a proof that the days of anointed eyes and anointed tongue are not past, and that the unction from the Holy One (1 John 2:20), which confers both spiritual perception and effective utterance, was not confined to apostolic times. “This commentary on the Gospel of Matthew is the latest and ripest of his life's labors. It will be found as a tree laden with rich fruit and evidencing a soil uniquely fertile and a culture that reveals a divine husbandman. We predict for this volume a larger sale than for any of Spurgeon's previous works, partly because it is his latest and has in a sense the aroma of his dying days, and partly because it is a simple, brief, and charming memorial of the most effective popular preacher of his age. Every page is, like his sermons, full of his Master and yet sparkling with his own unique individuality. They will be found to disclose many of the secrets of his power in discerning, expounding, and applying the gospel. The reader will find himself here keeping perpetual company with one whose soul followed hard after God, and who loved the paths where his Savior had trodden before him. “May the inspiring Spirit, who guided the evangelist Matthew in the production of this narrative, become to all readers of this commentary the illuminating Spirit also; and through these pages may he who is dead still continue to speak!” - Arthur T.

He is still known as the “Prince of Preachers” and frequently had more than 10,000 people present to hear him preach at the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London. His sermons were printed in newspapers, translated into many languages, and published in many books.

A Complete Exegetical Commentary on the Gospel According to Matthew “Charles H. Spurgeon had a rare insight into the Word of God and spiritual truth. He was a prophet of wonderfully clear vision. He saw beneath the letter to the spirit of divine truth. He was both an example and a proof that the days of anointed eyes and anointed tongue are not past, and that the unction from the Holy One (1 John 2:20), which confers both spiritual perception and effective utterance, was not confined to apostolic times. “This commentary on the Gospel of Matthew is the latest and ripest of his life's labors. It will be found as a tree laden with rich fruit and evidencing a soil uniquely fertile and a culture that reveals a divine husbandman. We predict for this volume a larger sale than for any of Spurgeon's previous works, partly because it is his latest and has in a sense the aroma of his dying days, and partly because it is a simple, brief, and charming memorial of the most effective popular preacher of his age. Every page is, like his sermons, full of his Master and yet sparkling with his own unique individuality. They will be found to disclose many of the secrets of his power in discerning, expounding, and applying the gospel. The reader will find himself here keeping perpetual company with one whose soul followed hard after God, and who loved the paths where his Savior had trodden before him. “May the inspiring Spirit, who guided the evangelist Matthew in the production of this narrative, become to all readers of this commentary the illuminating Spirit also; and through these pages may he who is dead still continue to speak!” - Arthur T.
