Irony = the opposite of what is expected.
The trial and crucifixion of Jesus is filled with ironies. This can serve to pour fuel on the fires of our faith because realities are different from appearances.
Irony #1: Religious devotion hides animus toward Jesus
Irony #2: Underhanded political maneuverings fulfill Scripture
Irony #3: The dismissed King really is a King
Irony #4: The innocent is condemned, the guilty goes free
Text: John 18:28-40
