As I was reading John 19, it was so obvious that Pilate made all the wrong decisions that day. Just like Pilate, we have many decisions to make. Our choices we make, tell which kingdom we serve. The scriptures in John 19 reveal that Pilate chose to serve the Kingdom of Earth - he went for popularity, power, security of his job and short-term comfort. He tried to seek a middle way, a scheme in which he could serve both or neither without having to chose, but there is none.
Just like Pilate we choose who we will serve!
Which kingdom do you serve?
Kingdom of the Earth OR Kingdom of Heaven
* Public Popularity Personal Integrity
*Way of the World God's Way
*Works Faith/Trust
*Pride Grace
*Power Truth
*Riches on Earth Treasures in Heaven
*Short-term comfort Eternal Rewards
*Earthly Success Spiritual Purity
*Tangible Rewards Intangible and delayed rewards
Each day, we must choose which kingdom we will serve.
