Celebrity worship is rampant in the world and in the Church. Even the poorest churches sacrifice to hear the popular preachers. Often most of the listeners cannot share one important point from the message they listened to but they can say: that Pastor is the best, the greatest! We are not to lift up Pastors but to lift up Christ Jesus. If we don't understand the message at its core we should listen to it if we can over and over until we do. Sometimes we may even need to ask a trusted fellow listener to explain what was presented in a way that you can understand it. It's ALL about extolling the name and Person of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, that JUST and INNOCENT Man.
While celebrity worship is on the rise reverence for the Divine Trio and the things of God is quickly diminishing. This I believe is due to the fact that many pastors and religious teachers are teaching a kind of chummy view of God so that He is thought of simply as a pal.Jesus is indeed a friend of sinners, but He's not a pal. He is as high and exalted above humanity as anyone could be. Also pastors and other leaders are failing to teach reverence for The Divine Trio. This can be done in each service simply by mentioning that we worship a holy God. Let us conduct ourselves in a way worthy of His worship. The way we attire ourselves, the way we enter and exit the place of worship, our demeanor during the service, all should testify to our reverence for God. If we can hold our tongues in the Court House, we can hold it during worship. Running ads during a spiritual presentation is also an act of irreverence towards God. It's like stopping the sermon at intervals to pass around the offering trays. Ads can be done at the beginning or at the end.
Even now Pilate was not left to act blindly. A message from God warned him from the deed he was about to commit. In answer to Christ’s prayer, the wife of Pilate had been visited by an angel from heaven, and in a dream she had beheld the Saviour and conversed with Him. Pilate’s wife was not a Jew, but as she looked upon Jesus in her dream, she had no doubt of His character or mission. She knew Him to be the Prince of God. She saw Him on trial in the judgment hall. She saw the hands tightly bound as the hands of a criminal. She saw Herod and his soldiers doing their dreadful work. She heard the priests and rulers, filled with envy and malice, madly accusing. She heard the words, “We have a law, and by our law He ought to die.” She saw Pilate give Jesus to the scourging, after he had declared, “I find no fault in Him.” She heard the condemnation pronounced by Pilate, and saw him give Christ up to His murderers. She saw the cross uplifted on Calvary. She saw the earth wrapped in darkness, and heard the mysterious cry, “It is finished.” Still another scene met her gaze. She saw Christ seated upon the great white cloud, while the earth reeled in space, and His murderers fled from the presence of His glory. With a cry of horror she awoke, and at once wrote to Pilate words of warning. DA 732.1
Conrad Vine is my favorit speaker!👏🙏
I am so appreciating this sermon particularly when Conrad said that God is to be exalted and not the speaker.
A casual reading of the bible doesn't reveal a vicious Pirate

Interesting how the governors or rulers in that Roman system paid for the position. I always wondered all the money worked.
Wow, what a sermon start from the beginning the plan of salvation through the eyes of Pontius Pilate’s wife
