In this sermon, Pastor Aaron Shamp explores the ironies of the crucifixion of Jesus in Matthew 27. Drawing upon insights from D. A. Carson, he highlights three main ironies: the man who was mocked as king was actually the true king, the man who appeared powerless was actually powerful, and the man who couldn't save himself actually saved others.

He encourages listeners to stake their lives upon the cross of Christ by loving God, wrestling with sin, and carrying their cross in active obedience.
