Mock Now Gnash Later

As I read this passage, I was reminded of the way people today disregard Jesus. They are convinced that He is a fictional character in a book full of fairy tails. That mindset will be their tragedy. 

Jesus is real. His place in history is secure. No reputable historian disputes that Jesus lived. So the question becomes, is He the Son of God, the Messiah prophesied about in the Old Testament. 

The religious leaders in Jesus day were convinced that He was not the Messiah. Many people today have the mind of the Pharisees. Unfortunately, like the Pharisees, these people are wrong. They have staked their eternity on a lie. 

Consider this, if Christians are wrong about eternal life, nothing happens. They die and that’s it. However, if non-believers are wrong…

Here’s today’s Bible verse. Enjoy. 

Luke 22:63-65

63 The men who were guarding Jesus began mocking and beating him. 64 They blindfolded him and demanded, “Prophesy! Who hit you?”65 And they said many other insulting things to him.
