JOHN 19:1-5

I. AND SCOURGED HIM.
        A. Isaiah 53:5 "But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our
           iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was upon Him and by His stripes we are
           healed."
        B. I Peter 2:24 "Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we
           being dead to sins should live unto righteousness, by whose stripes ye are healed."
        C. Healing in His stripes.
                1. Took the bread saying, "This is my body which was broken for you."

II. AS A LAMB BEFORE THE SHEARS IS DUMB, SO HE OPENED NOT HIS MOUTH.
        A. I find no fault in Him!
                1. Even after terrible scourging.

Ill. BEHOLD THE MAN!
        A. Pilate was a sadist.
                1. He was used to seeing human suffering

        B. Christ life proved Him a real man.
                1. Gentle Jesus meek and miId?
                        a. Temple, money changers.
                2. Stood firm against opposition.
        C. Christ suffering proved Him a man.
        Pilate cried, "Behold the man."
