This was a shadow from the old testament. This is what the temple was built for. Jesus is the “Lamb of God”, Spotless, with no blemish. Abraham sent to sacrifice his son, His hand was stayed and The Lord provided the sacrifice. The Lambs blood covered the Old Testament requirement. The priests performed the sacrifice. That was their job.

It all happened as it was supposed to happen. It’s ‘human sighted’ to think that there was someone to blame here. The romans were just the knife that the priests used to perform the sacrifice. Their hand was force by the priests because of the way the laws were being interpreted and enforced.

This is how the evil will ultimately be defeated. Because people lean on their own understanding instead of trusting the Lord with all their heart. The conflict of human nature, as terrible as it is, and beautiful as it can be, being the fuel that drives the engine of salvation.

We write articles like this because we don’t want to acknowledge the role that God has in these events. The Priests, the Roman Governor, the Soldiers, the Crowd... They all thought they were doing the right thing. The only one who knew this was wrong, and did it anyway was the evil that sought to destroy the work that was being done. The Darkness failed on that day.

In my opinion, we mitigate that failure when we forget these things.

Samarai, He is Sovereign and even allowed Satan to affect the death of the Lamb.
Our Lamb even chose of one His 12 disciples that He knew would ‘be a devil’.
And Satan has been working, even within the church, since then..and that too is part of His Sovereign plan..His ways and thoughts are higher than ours.

Because some day, Satan will have an appointment on the gallows he made, just like haman..Satan’s head will have a tent peg driven through it by a woman like Sisera’s head what Satan has sowed, Satan will reap and his end will be the end of Satan’s greatest power- power over death,to kill man even the Son of Man.
And the victory Our Lamb had over death is our greatest hope!

Satan failed on Passover 2,000 years ago and caused his ultimate end.
The Lamb’s death reversed the curse and the destroyer, Satan,who has been allowed to kill, even the first born, for 6000 years, will be replaced with the restorer. Where life is eternal.
His Word has accounts of people who have ‘represented satan’ prophetically, in their lives and actions, and they didn’t know it!
Vessels for ‘dishonorable’ use are still His vessels.
He is Sovereign!

Yes, and another sin, for sure, is to follow the direction other people have for our thoughts, rather than following what is in our hearts, because “The kingdom of heaven is within.”
