SIX CO-CONSPIRATORS IN THE DEATH OF JESUS (2)
(Message by Tanny Keng)
1. Who Killed Jesus Christ?
a) The death of Jesus Christ involved six co-conspirators, each doing their part to push the process along. Their motives ranged from greed to hatred to duty. They were Judas Iscariot, Caiaphas, the Sanhedrin, Pontius Pilate, Herod Antipas, and an unnamed Roman centurion.
b) Hundreds of years earlier, the Old Testament prophets had said the Messiah would be led like a sacrificial lamb to slaughter. It was the only way the world could be saved from sin. Learn the role each co-conspirator played in the most important trial in history and how each step contributed to the death of Jesus.
2. Joseph Caiaphas - High Priest of the Jerusalem Temple
a) Joseph Caiaphas, High Priest of the Jerusalem temple, was one of the most powerful men in ancient Israel, yet he felt threatened by the peace-loving rabbi Jesus of Nazareth. Caiaphas feared Jesus might start a rebellion, causing a clampdown by the Romans, at whose pleasure Caiaphas served. So Caiaphas decided Jesus had to die, ignoring all the laws to make sure that happened.
