The Power of the Resurrection Page #2

took a great chance for me if the Romans

one doesn't breathe without taking a

chance

another thing you said I was from.

Galilee you knew I came here with him I

assumed so when you really did this for

him here you're escaping from danger

when you came here

there will be more danger my master

believes in the way of peace not

everyone who wants to live in peace is

allowed to yea me with this with a sword

I don't even know how to use it we're

gonna like this better

teachers that's rude

god we've been looking all over for you

what's this but what's wrong with this.

Johnny's going to need protection and

I'm going to give it to him you said you

were looking for me yes

leaving Bethany we're on our way to.

Jerusalem

sure well I'm ready no matter what

dangers facing there you can depend on

me thanks friend so you were on your way

to Jerusalem must have been exciting oh

it was where do what are you done in

Bethany had preceded him and the streets

were crowded with people they sang and

cheered and cried Hosanna blessed is he

who comes in the name of the Lord not

been very proud that we were we were

she laughs at you I never afraid

abandoned himself can be proud and vain

and boastful one day and very frightened

the next I cut it out just listen to me

try

we enter the city in triumph and we were

very proud John Thomas my brother Andrew

and I and all the race perhaps we would

have felt differently those if we'd

known what is going on the quarters of

the high priest Karras

almost three years I've been saying we'd

have to deal with this man well the time

is here see for yourself

chaos assume the people cheer today they

forget tomorrow yes we will pull his

pilot forget father-in-law we have to be

practical about it but if the story we

heard from Bethany is a fraud that's not

offensive Pilate believes we've lost our

control over the people man claims he's.

God people are beginning to believe it

look at them holding up their children

to see this man singing and cheering

what if he would enter the temple now

then who would be the power there you

are this man he has no power in the

temple until he can appoint high priests

as I have a point of view that is power

what is he father-in-law I just noticed

he rides on a donkey I thought about the

same thing the Prophet Zechariah once

said the Messiah will enter Jerusalem on

the back of a donkey

of course the man was shrewd enough to

be an impostor he would prepare himself

with the details of the prophecy but

that wouldn't make him less dangerous so

when the word came from Bethany I

thought it best to send an investigator

right away without telling me it had to

be done quickly and now I suppose he is

back I'm waiting to see me

all right bringing

well what did you find in Bethany the

story about raising the dead man yes yes

it's true nonsense

du sommet proves that he is the Messiah

but there are others who feel that with

such power he could drive the Romans out

of our country you see what if Pilate

hears such talk revolution you know how

it is in this city at Passover time with

the memory of the deliverance from the

Egyptians people talk of nothing but

freedom still if we take open steps

against this Galilee and now during the

holiday it might be a protest from the

people what if we could find a way a

quiet way quickly tell it there is one

of his disciples a man with a natural

bent for conspiracy I could bring him

here to know Allah and no ambition but

his power to drive the Romans out I sell

any other ambition money I think that's

enough to work with bring him to see me

as soon as you can

one thing you must get out of your mind

at once we are no friends the Romans

here if all times we give that

impression it is only to make it

possible to have a temple for our people

to worship it I understand that worthy

honest so if you and your master have

plans at least let us work with you

together there is no doubt could succeed

if he would do it here

I thought surely after the Welcome they

gave him he would he would realize his

power and use it but there's no sign no

sign at all he talks a great deal of a

new Kingdom a new world I'm beginning to

think he doesn't mean the same thing as

we do and you are disappointed and

rightly so but he asked the twelve of us

to celebrate the preparation of the.

Passover with him maybe maybe that's

when he will say the word but if he

doesn't.

I don't know some men must have

opportunity thrusted I don't understand

if he were in danger than the Romans is

there any Galilean in the city who had

refused to fight for him or any Judea

neither after the Welcome they gave him

no well then if he were placed in a

position that seemed dangerous the.

Galileans would have to fight for him

and he himself would have to lead them

no man could resist saving his own life

buddy that's a very interesting idea

wait how do I know you will go through

with it

here take this as a token of my intent

quite heavy 30 pieces of silver just as

a token if he says anything to you about

an uprising how problem is solved if not

you were to come back and tell me and we

will do the rest

great

a green good he will be back after the

piece don't worry so even before the

feast Judas agreed to betray him we

didn't know or even suspect when I look

back on it I realize how little we did

know that night but you mean Jesus no

and because he knew he had much to teach

us at that Last Supper is when he knelt

and washed our feet as a mere servant

right and after he had done it you

joined us at the table and we waited

expectantly for his word John Thomas all

of us now I say to you one of you will

betray me no I'm afraid not a price was

I you Lord behold the hand of him that

betrays me is with me on the table

woe to that man by whom the Son of Man

is betrayed it would have been better

for that man if he had not been born

what you are going to do do quickly.

Oh.

Take eat this is my body broken for you

do this in remembrance of me

drink of it all of you for this is my

blood of the new covenant which is

poured out for many for the forgiveness

of sins

you

you

now is the son of man glorified and in

him God is glorified blood

yet a little while I am with you where I

am going you cannot come Lord where are

you going

you cannot follow me now why I'm not

afraid I will lay down my life for you

will you lay down your life for me Lord

how can you doubt my loyalty my love for

you is complete and beyond question I

say to you the cock will not crow till

you have denied me three times

deny you our Lord

yeah

Peter can you see

he nails by himself and appraised

never seen him like this before faces

some terrible trouble uh only tell us we

could protect him we must wait any word

of any report none and the next move is

up to us fortunately we are ready you'll

find a band of soldiers waiting for you

in the courtyard you have only to lead
