Why Didn't Jesus Come Down?

Matthew 27:27-44

By Pastor Willie Behrends, November 08, 2026

Today, Jesus is challenged to prove who He is by coming down from the cross. His decision to stay teaches us about who He is, what He came to do, and how we should respond to Him!

So, why didn’t Jesus come down?

I – Because He came to ! (Matthew 27:27-31)


II – Because He came to ! (Matthew 27:32-38)

III – Because He came to ! (Matthew 27:39-44)


Today’s ‘Take-Aways.’ Ask Yourself…
1. “Who’s really who?”
2. “What do I with what Jesus for me?”
3. “Does my depend on my getting way?”
