NOVEMBER 28  THE JESUS QUESTIONS   JQ#33  

“Eli, Eli lama sabachthani? that is, My God, My God, 

why have You forsaken Me?”  (Matthew 27:46)

LIVING FOR JESUS - Daily Prayer    

JESUS, Lord, my Redeemer, Savior, each day as I start my day 

by uttering Your Name, the Name above all names there is Hope

 for whatever comes my way. The world continues to tumble and

 spiral into darkness and trials and temptations are around every 

corner but when I speak Your Name I am comforted by Your Words:

 “I have overcome” and I know change comes over me once I started

 calling on Your Holy Name and I am confident first that You HAVE 

begun a Good Work in me and I am even more confident 

that what You Start, that You WILL FINISH! 

Praise the God Most High that loved sinners enough to Free 

them from the slavery of sin and Praise be to the 

Son of God Most High who was Obedient to the Father’s Will 

and paid the penalty of my sin debt and Purchased with 

His Precious Blood our Pardon from our sins.    

AMEN

THE JESUS QUESTIONS

Jesus has been led away to the courtyard of Caiaphas the high priest

 and Peter has followed Him there from Gethsemane. 

“Now the chief priests, the elders, and all the council sought 

false testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, but found none. 

Even though many false witnesses came forward, they found none.” 

(Matthew 26:59-60) 

At this point we can make an almost direct parallel to what is happening

 in our modern world as Christians are suffering the greatest persecution

 on a world wide scale that has been recorded in many centuries. 

Question: How does today parallel Jesus standing before the chief

 priests and elders being falsely accused? Answer: The TRUTH that Jesus

 is Innocent will remain the TRUTH regardless of however many false

 witnesses the world will publish or report in the mainstream media

 or quote as “experts” saying “God is dead” and “Jesus is a myth”, 

or the greatest untruth being spoken by billions today,

 “God does not have a son” therefore making God a liar.  

Just as the chief priests, elders, and the councils sought 

to have Jesus killed, today the world is “hell-bent” on crucifying

 the Holy Character of God and His Only Begotten Son for the

 exact same reason today as the reason they had over 2000 years ago —

 men of power, power which was usurped from God, desire above

 all else to retain their man-made power and are willing to do so

 at the expense of their souls and the souls of all they can drag down

 with their Big Lie in their quest for man-made power!  

Jesus proved Himself as the Son of God by allowing this event 

that started in a garden and ended on a cross to bring Glory to God

 who proved He is the Most High God when on the Third Day 

He Resurrected His Son from the borrowed tomb. 

Evil had its grandest moment when Jesus was nailed to the cross 

but even with the first blow of the first nail, when the first drop of 

His Innocent Blood was shed, the grand moment for evil was over 

because with His Innocent Blood Jesus won the Ultimate Eternal Victory

 over evil and because “what [man] meant for evil [against Jesus], 

God meant it for good, to bring it about that many people

 should be kept alive, as they are today…” (Genesis 50:20-21) 

and with the Sacrifice and Resurrection of the Passover Lamb God

 proved Himself Sovereign over Death and the Grave and all the

 weapons evil could muster!  

Knowing Himself to be the Son of God and having Supreme Confidence

 in His Father, Jesus did not say a word, “But Jesus kept silent” and

 did not respond to His accusers until they demanded: 

“Tell us if You are the Christ, the Son of God!” (Matthew 26:63) 

and when the high priest had demanded the “truth”, Jesus spoke the 

TRUTH —“Jesus said to him, ‘It is as you said. Nevertheless,

 I say to you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at the 

right hand of the Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.” 

(Matthew 26:64) 

Then and today, there is no lie nor any amount of denials

 that can change the

 TRUTH that

 JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD AND GOD IS STILL ON HIS THRONE !!! 

False witnesses are just that, “false witnesses”; however, 

TRUTH is ETERNAL and WILL NEVER CHANGE —

 JESUS IS THE GIVER OF LIFE. 

That night in the courtyard they falsely accused Jesus and started the lie

 and without knowing it they also told the TRUTH as Matthew writes: 

“They answered and said, ‘[Jesus] is deserving of death 

{The Lie}…[and]…Prophesy to us, Christ 

{TRUTH:JESUS IS THE CHRIST!}!” 

(Matthew 26:65-68) 

In our world today, the lie is still being uttered by those 

who desire “power” and once in “power” they lord it over 

those that put them in “power” 

so we hear the lie in the form of “God is dead {and according to

 the modern power mongers God deserved to die—”

 and they protect their evil intent by not allowing prayer in school 

and call all those who defend the TRUTH of GOD 

as “extremists” and “superstitious”, further, they have legislated God

 out of our government (separation of church and state) and they 

continue to promote their evil agenda through pagan legislation

 against God such as legalized abortion (murder of the unborn) 

and force public acceptance of many unnatural things 

that are abominations against God 

— but “True Believers” will not be swayed by the modern “high priest” 

or the lies of billions of false witnesses because we KNOW that

 TRUTH NEVER CHANGES — 

Jesus is the Son of God Most High 

and 

“God so loved the world that He gave [Jesus] 

His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him 

should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send

 His Son into the world to condemn the world,

 but that the world through [Jesus] might be saved.”

 (John 3:16-17) 

Can you say that Jesus “deserves death” and evil deserves “power”?

 That’s what today’s “high priest” will demand with their new-world,

 anti-God agenda, but just as it has been since the beginning of mankind,

 it is up to you to either “believe” in God and His Son Jesus or “deny” 

the TRUTH of GOD for yourself — that is the TRUTH of FREEWILL —

 

Each individual must decide personally what they believe 

and not what those in power say they should believe…bottom line: 

You are personally responsible for what you believe 

and you will be held accountable to God Himself 

for how you act upon that belief!!!
