As we approach Easter this year, we will look at how different events in the gospel of John reveal Jesus as King, and what kind of King he is, beginning with his first miracle, turning water into wine at a wedding celebration in Cana.

Caiaphas, Easter #2

Caiaphas viewed Jesus as a threat because he was more concerned about his position, wealth, and authority than following what God was obviously doing and saying.

And do what is wrong to try to hold onto something that we will eventually lose anyway.
