Jesus: Deserted

by Alistair Begg

Luke 22:47
 (ID: 2352)

When Judas led the religious authorities to arrest Jesus, His disciples responded in all the ways they should not have. Alistair Begg shows that they were sleepily passive when they should have been praying, and they actively panicked when Jesus told them not to take up swords. In contrast, when we trust God’s sovereign purpose, we can respond to the crises of our day with wisdom and calm action.
