Thank you for coming to Part 2 of this video examining the Christian lie that the Jews killed Jesus, a vicious lie that exists to this day.
Did Jesus have to be crucified? No. The Roman Empire had the sole authority to crucify and did not have to approve His crucifixion. The Bible reveals that a crowd of Jews accepted responsibility for His crucifixion, saying that His blood would be on them and their children (Matthew 27:25). It is that revelation upon which Christian anti-Semitism took root.
Sounds like a strong argument that the Jews killed Jesus, except for one critical fact that remains denied by Christianity, and that is the Biblical revelation that literalism or literal interpretation is dead and kills the spiritual message (Romans 7:6; Second Corinthians 3:6). Once we understand that the Bible is not firstly the literal word of God, but rather a spiritual message that we are to know and embrace, the Bible’s Message is transformed, especially the definition of what a Jew is to God and what a Gentile is.
In Romans 2:27-29, we learn that God’s Jews are not defined outwardly, by way of one’s ancestry or religion, but are defined inwardly, by way of their love for the living spirit over dead literalism. By knowing the definition of God’s Jews, we know the definition of Gentiles. Gentiles are those that love the selfishness of dead literalism over the living Spirit of God—the Spirit of Selfless or Brotherly Love. Just as there are literal Jews that are spiritually Gentiles, there are literal Gentiles that are spiritually Jews. Everyone that personifies the Spirit of God no matter if they are literally Jew or Gentile is a spiritual Jew or one of God’s Jews. They are the Chosen Ones of the Spirit of God, because they are the ones that have chosen the Spirit of God, for as you sow, so shall you reap.
Let us not forget that literalism is dead and that we are to move beyond the literal and into the spiritual substance of the matter. It is true that the crowd of people that took responsibility for Jesus’ death were outwardly or literally Jews, but they were inwardly or spiritually Gentiles. It was not the Jews that killed Jesus, but the Gentiles, the ones that deny the Spirit of Brotherly Love. Of course, you will never convince a literalist of this revelation.
I am just a “heretic” non-Christian, yet I figured out the revelation about who killed Jesus within my first year of studying the Bible. How is it that centuries upon centuries of popes and priests and preachers and evangelists have never taught this revelation when it is quite evident in scripture? How can we ever measure the weight of Christian brutality and bloodshed upon the Jews? And all because of what? Because of a big, fat, easily-disproved Christian lie. How might this world be different today if Christianity—the self-proclaimed Church of Jesus Christ—had only ever taught and exemplified Jesus’ Spirit of Selfless Love instead of selfish, separatist, superstitious, fearful, holier-than-thou religion? Are we really to believe that Christianity is the Church of Jesus Christ? How can that be when Jesus Christ Himself tells us that His Church is not of this world, but of the Spirit (John 8:23, 15:19, 17:14, 17:16, 18:36)?
The true Church of Jesus Christ does not have walls made of wood or brick or stone, but made of the Spirit of Brotherly Love. The true Church is YOU when you walk The Way, Truth and Life of the Spirit, no matter your membership in worldly religion or lack of. Either you live to personify The Way of Brotherly Love or you don’t. It is as simple as that.
Thank you.
