This is the first sermon in a 7-week series covering Matthew chapters 26 , 27, & 28, called "Countdown to Calvary." This series will extend through Easter and one Sunday beyond. We will examine the events in these chapters leading up to Christ's trial, crucifixion, and resurrection. In this first sermon we see the interweaving of God's plan to bring his Son to the cross and the schemes of wicked men, such as the chief priests and Judas, to destroy him. In spite of the suffering shortly awaiting him Christ does is not deterred from instituting the Holy Table of the New Covenant which he would soon ratify by his death on Calvary.
