Today we walk with Jesus through challenge and confrontation.

The leaders demand, “By what authority?”

They question Him. Trap Him. Test Him.

Taxes. Resurrection. Commandments.

And Jesus stands steady.

He tells them:
The rejected stone will become the cornerstone.
Love God with all your heart.
Love your neighbor as yourself.

He is not scrambling to survive.
He is moving steadily toward the cross.

Calm under pressure.
Clear under accusation.
Unshaken in truth.

He stands firm while the world closes in.

And every step He takes…
is a step for you.
