PONTIUS PILATE THE MAN Or
POLITICAL EXPEDIENCE
Text—Matthew: 27-22
»
By the Rev. J. H. Shore
Pontus Pilate was the governor
. of Judea when Jesus Christ was con
demmed and crucified.
He governed the province under
the king who ruled the country. The
scribes and the Sadducees, the re
ligious leaders of the people in Ju
dea had been seeking to arouse the
people to cry for the crucifixon of
Jesus Christ.
They had lost the spirit of the
law of Moses and were offended at
the teaching and the preaching of
Jesus.
They were looking for a Messiah
who would come and conqlier the
Romans and set up for themselves
a national government. Jesus had
said that He came not to destroy
but to fulfill the moral law, and
that His kingdom was not of this
world. They were to render unto
Caesar the things that belonged to
Caesar and to God the things that
belonged to God.
Pilate told the scribes and the
pharisees that he could find noth
ing worthy of death in Jesus Christ.
Pilate was the representative poli
tician of the centuries, and we have .
seen his character repeated through
the years. He possessed some good
impulses and wanted to do the right
thing, when it did not interfere with
his political position. He knew it
was envy that made the scribes and
pharisees clamor for the blood of
Jesus Christ.

Bullock Lumber Company
Sermon for
Sunday, April 24, 1946
the following farmers: Mrs. G. E.
Woody, W ,R, Wade, Robert Shot
well, Berkely Shotwell and S. P.
Gentry. Request for a “before" has
also been made by Hubert Yar
bourgh. Others are expected to be
made improvements in this project
during the year. When improve
ments have been made an “after”
picture will be made of project.
He and the king from whom he
had received his appointment as
governor of Judea, were not on good
terms and he did not want to do
anything to make the estrangement
greater. When he saw that there
was no possibility of getting the
Jews to release Jesus, he took a
basin of water asd washed his hands v
and said, “I am innocent of the
blood of this man".
Politicians have been saying for
centuries “ we are innocent of the
blood of this man," for we have
“washed in water the guilt of his
blood” and have deceived them
selves that material substance can
remove the sin of political expedi
ence. They are obsessed with am
. bition for place and power, and they
make their appeal to the ignorant
masses of the multitude. They pre
tend to love the people ardently, t
while at the same time, they are
climbing upon the backs of the
people to official position. We see
this when they are brought face to
face with any question that involves
moral convictions.
The politician may be a total ab
stainer in his personal life. He may
havp a sense of justice, and do right
when it does not interfere with his
own selfish interests. He will work
and vote to perpetuate the damn
able liquor traffic to the destruc
tion of human society. There have
been more lives lost In the manu
facture and sale of liquor, than in '
all the wars, famines and pestilepces
since the beginning of time.
This applies to all the evils that
are at work to destroy the lives of
men. They go on the theory that
“every man has his price” in this
world.
The final argument of the scribes
and pharisees with Pilate, was that
“if he released Jesus, he was not
the friend of Caesar," He felt that
he must at all hazards, keep the
friendship of those who had made
.him governor of Judea. He answer
ed his own question, “what shall I
do then with Jesus which is called
Christ?" by saying “take Him and
crucify Him.”
Politicians, like Pilate have been
crucifying Jesus Christ, on the altar
of political expedience through the
years and are still doing it. The
world in our tunes is a valley of
disjointed dry bones, and God is
asking the question, “son of man,
can these bones live?"
There is only one thing that will
make these dry bones live and thit
is, the breath of the spirit of God
must be breathed into the lives of
men and men must come together
under the universal brotherhood of
man, based upon the universal fa
therhood of God.
We often hear men say “everybody
Is doing it” but it is clearly thun
dered from the Word of God “.thou
shall not follow a mulltltude to do
evil".
There must be the stamina of a
moral conviction that is willing to
stand alone with Jesus Christ be
fore Pilate.
Let our prayer'continually be O
God, breathe thine own life into the
spirituals nostrils of men, that the
kingdom of God may come and
holiness prevail over human society
as the waters cover the sea.
