August 11, 2018 John chapter 18
King Jesus operates differently than this world's kings. He knows who he is and that his kingdom is eternal. He doesn't fight to retain power. He gives love and power away through sacrifice. No other kingdom works that way. When we see the upside down nature of His Kingdom we will either embrace it through surrender or fight to maintain control. Pilate couldn't understand Jesus' reaction to the trial that led him to be executed on the cross. Jesus calls us not to fight with the world's weapons of pride and greed. Instead, we are called to serve, sacrifice and love.
