False Witness
And they led Jesus to the high priest. And all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes came together. And Peter had followed him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. And he was sitting with the guards and warming himself at the fire. Now the chief priests and the whole council were seeking testimony against Jesus to put him to death, but they found none. For many bore false witness against him, but their testimony did not agree. And some stood up and bore false witness against him, saying, “We heard him say, ‘I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another, not made with hands.’” Yet even about this their testimony did not agree.

False Witness
They break the 8th Commandment in order to get what they want. They meet under the veil of darkness to hide their sin. But even in the darkness their lies don't agree. Many rose to destroy him, but none of it worked according to plan. Jesus does not get strong armed. He lays down his life of his own accord and then picks it up again. He dies because of his compassion and love for you. He dies to take away your sins and to restore you to sonship. He loves you so much that he comes into the creation, becomes part of it, and then lays down his life for the world. He has the power to lay it down and to pick it up. He does that for you.
