LUKE 24:7

 "The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again." - Luke 24:7

Did You really say "the hands of sinners"?  Ironic, You came to save the sinners and then they were the ones who had You crucified.  Ironic, in this case, the "sinners" were the religious and political leaders of the day (with maybe a sprinkling of the people in the crowd who were yelling, "Crucify Him!" But, even those people were probably influenced by the religious leaders.)

So, really You meant to call these guys the "sinners."  I wonder if it's still the same way today.  The people who we look up to as religious guides, could they be the sinners?  I'm sure there are some.  I'm also sure there are others who are great examples of Your love.

I guess the main point is that you can't let your role define you.  There are teachers who are sinners and teachers who are saints.  There are athletes who are sinners and athletes who are Saints (literally!).  

And, I guess really, if you think about it, we're all sinners.  Some of us had Jesus over to be crucified and some of us don't. Or do we?
