What Unites Us as Christians in a Divided World | The Creed - Week 3
In Part 3 of "The Creed" series, Pastor Alex Himaya explores a crucial statement from the Apostles’ Creed: “I believe in Jesus Christ…who suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried.” This powerful teaching dives into why this historical figure, Pontius Pilate, is mentioned, and what it reveals about Jesus’ journey to the cross. Pastor Alex likens the Apostles’ Creed to a “load-bearing wall”—essential and foundational to our faith. We’re reminded that Pilate’s role was more than just a mention; it anchored Jesus’ suffering and crucifixion to a specific moment in history. Pastor Alex unpacks Pilate’s curiosity, confusion, and fear, paralleling it with how people today react to Jesus. Ultimately, this teaching challenges us to see beyond the facts and focus on the spiritual reality—why Jesus was crucified, died, and was buried. It’s not just history; it’s a call to understand and share the heart of the Gospel. Jesus endured the cross to remove our curse and bring us healing, love, and resurrection power. Reflection Questions: 1. Who in your life is curious, confused, or even scared about Jesus? 2. How can you start inviting them to church and engage them in conversations about Jesus?
