DAY 2 | MARCH 12 MATTHEW 20:17-19 17 And as Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples aside, and on the way he said to them, 18 “See, we are going up to Jerusalem. And the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death 19 and deliver him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified, and he will be raised on the third day.” " The nations and His own people rejected him, His friends abandoned Him - one of them even betrayed Him. The reasons for the world's rejection of the Messiah vary from person to person. But they all boil down to the sins of pride and autonomy. The point is this: We have all betrayed Jesus rather than surrender to him. • In what ways are you tempted to betray Jesus by clinging to autonomy? • Why is the betrayal of Jesus so treacherous and unjust?
