BEHIND THE MOB
When the vigilantes arrested Jesus, they had their trial.
Now all they had to do was to convince the governors that they were right in
their indictment. The Romans did not recognize Jewish Law especially since Romans
had many gods. Caesar was a “god,” after all. Why all the fuss about gods
because they are nothing special in the eyes of Romans? Oftentimes in the Roman
Empire, a “god” was just an excuse to fornicate, have orgies, and commit
incest.
The Roman Empire had conquered the entire Middle East.
Unlike many conquerors, the Romans allowed the Hebrews a great degree of
self-rule. Herod Antipas was not even a “king” but thought of himself as such.
He was a friend of Tiberius Caesar and merely a tetrarch. The Hebrews could do much
as they wanted so long as they honored Caesar and Roman law.
Perhaps the Jews thought that the Doctrine of Christ would
spread to the Romans; after all they knew scripture, and scripture in several places
prophesies that; e.g., “God shall
enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be
his servant” (Gen 9:27). “Tents” were tabernacles, and Mosaic worship was in
tabernacles. Shemites were both the Jewish and Arabic peoples, but identify
Jews in modern times. Japhethites were Indo-Europeans of which many in the
Roman Empire were of their stock. The Jews were possibly apprehensive that the
world would be Christianized. Perhaps to prevent the spread of that “heresy” Jesus
had to die!
Why would Romans even care about Jesus? To placate the mob! The
mob needed validation so as not to be indicted themselves.
Mobs usually have no authority but take upon themselves
responsibility. After all, to keep Judea Jewish, a new religion could never be
planted there. Over the years, the Hebrews had more than one god. They never abandoned
Yahweh but had other gods in His Face. El was the other God and made
it easy to confuse just who God was. False Elohim were called Baals. The
Hebrews had no problem confusing Elohim and Baal, but God taught them a
well-deserved lesson. God created Babylon to implement justice on Judah. It was
destroyed and so was there worship.
Later, for four-hundred years, God remained silent, and the
Jews had no God. He failed to listen to or answer the Jews until apostolic times.
With all that said, the Jews feared Jesus because they feared retribution from
God, and with that false belief, they rationalized killing of Jesus. They
thought it justified their actions, but in the end, Jesus died to do that by
grace. Yes, Jesus died for the mob because rebellious Jews lives matter.
The irony of it all is that the mob killed God to honor
God. They wrongly thought they were doing the right thing! With the same irony,
today’s mob has caused the death of many innocent people to justify the death
of George Floyd. Vengeance was theirs, not God’s. Unknown to the mob, Yahweh
sought peace by allowing vengeance to be brought upon Himself. Vengeance did
not belong to the mob. The Jews were transgressing God’s Law, not Jesus.
The Floyd mob were not even justifying the death of an
innocent man; they had to fabricate innocence. In other words, the 2020 mob
rule is the “George Floyd Hoax.” Did Floyd deserve to die for his common
crimes? No, he did not, but neither did he warrant all those others deaths that
are on his back. The way to honor George Floyd was with tears, not with stones.
You do remember that the Jews were out to stone Jesus, as they were wont to do,
do you not? What did Jesus ask with the sinful woman? “He that is without sin
among you, let him first cast a stone at her” (John 8:7). Who should have cast
the first stone at Chauvin and the Jephethites (Gentiles)? Those without sin!
Why did Black Lives Matter originate? Because Japheth would
dwell in the tents of Shem, and Ham would serve them. No race likes to
serve any other but that was the curse. Ham is the father of the African race, both
the black and whiter races and throughout history Africans have served Japheth
and Shem. Black lives matter is not a new thing, it has existed since
the regeneration of the world. Jesus came to end that stigma. He died for all
mankind. That is the Mystery of God of which Paul spoke.
In other words, Christ set them free, but they mistakenly
believed that they were set free from mankind. Jesus came to set men free from
servanthood to sin. How can black lives matter to the world? To allow them to
live in “the tents of Shem” as do the white complexion Gentiles. In other
words, to be united under Christ.
God had been silent for all those years. He screamed in
labor pains at Jesus’s birth because He was born to die. God wept when He
experienced death, not for His sake, but mankind’s. His agony was not for Himself
but for others who would continue in hatred. God finally communicated with His
Jewish disciples again when they became of one accord with all the peoples around
them (Acts 2). How can peace be achieved? Not by killing God’s institutions,
but each being in accord with others (Acts 2:1).
The mob brings discord. It is exactly against the peace that
Jesus died to bring. Many go out of their way to say, “This is a peaceful
protest.” Peaceful protestors would not follow the mob around. Just as with
Jesus, those who were silent and stood in the back were not there for Jesus but
the mob. The “peaceful protesters” are Satan’s cunning way of justifying the
authority of the mob, just as the Serpent did with Eve in the Garden of Eden.
Eve had no right to be there. She was not to stand under that tree for
thereunder was temptation. By even being there, although she did not understand,
she too committed the sin appropriated to Adam since she was of Adam.
To justify (rationalize) their mob, the Jews took Jesus to
Caiaphas. He had not been with the mob, but now the mob came to him and his
colleagues. The mob were of Caiaphas’s doing. They were doing his will. Caiaphas
had become the “god” of the angered mob. Overly emotional people disenfranchise
God and enfranchise those who are not God. Scripture says to, “Be sober, be
vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about,
seeking whom he may devour” (1 Pet 5:8). That does not mean to be a vigilante
but to always test everything by Holy Scripture. Was it fine for vigilante
justice? On the contrary, justice would have been for those who had
sinned. Jesus had not.
Sobriety is more than temperance with alcohol. It is emotional
temperance, or restraint. If the mob had been vigilant, they would not have become
emotional and would have restrained their anger. Likewise, with the George Floyd
mob. They destroyed because they were overly emotional. However, very astute,
and rational mentors conducted their emotional outbursts.
Just as Caiaphas was not with the mob, his paid helper was
(Judas). Judas was there to instigate anger and bring out the emotions of the mob.
That’s how mob’s are created. There is always money behind mobs because the
love of money can buy feigned emotionalism. The Satan (in Judas) finally
got to create something but it was chaos and havoc. That is exactly what those
who drive the mob do, and all the while the peaceful followers remain unaware
of who they are really following. In the case of Judas’s mob, they were innocently
following Satan in him (the Antichrist). In the case of Soros’s mob, they too
are innocently following an antichrist.
Who committed the greater sin with Jesus? Was the one Pilate
or the mob; the government or the Deep State? “The one who delivered Me to you
has the greater sin.” That one is Judas, but he led many. He led the mob; they
are guilty of killing Jesus.
Jesus died for all mankind. We all have committed sin. Judas’s
sin was greater than Pilate’s, and Caiaphas’s sin was also greater than Pilate’s.
As part of the “mob” that seeks to diminish Jesus, we all killed Jesus. Perhaps
Pilate had a lesser sin than anyone’s. After all, he washed his hands of the
whole matter; have you washed your flesh from guilt?
