The Harmony of the Gospels – Week 46 – Jesus faces the Sanhedrin

Jesus is taken from Gethsemane to stand before Annas and then Caiaphas, where false witnesses fail to agree until Jesus openly affirms He is the Christ, leading to a charge of blasphemy and brutal mistreatment. Meanwhile, Peter denies Jesus three times in the courtyard, fulfilling Jesus’ prophecy and fleeing in grief. The pastor emphasizes that Jesus willingly submitted to this suffering and calls believers to trust God and respond with Christlike integrity when facing false accusations or conflict.
