My Worship Time Focus:
PT-1 “Intro to Matt. 26:57-68”
Bible Reading & Meditation Reference:
Matt. 26:57-68
Message of the verses: “57 Those who had
seized Jesus led Him away to Caiaphas, the high priest, where the scribes and
the elders were gathered together. 58 But Peter was following Him at a distance
as far as the courtyard of the high priest, and entered in, and sat down with
the officers to see the outcome. 59 Now the chief priests and the whole Council
kept trying to obtain false testimony against Jesus, so that they might put Him
to death. 60 They did not find any, even though many false witnesses
came forward. But later on two came forward, 61 and said, "This man
stated, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God and to rebuild it in three
days.’" 62 The high priest stood up and said to Him, "Do You not
answer? What is it that these men are testifying against You?" 63 But
Jesus kept silent. And the high priest said to Him, "I adjure You by the
living God, that You tell us whether You are the Christ, the Son of God." 64
Jesus said to him, "You have said it yourself; nevertheless I tell
you, hereafter you will see THE SON OF MAN SITTING AT THE RIGHT HAND OF POWER,
and COMING ON THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN." 65 Then the high priest tore his
robes and said, "He has blasphemed! What further need do we have of
witnesses? Behold, you have now heard the blasphemy; 66 what do you
think?" They answered, "He deserves death!" 67 Then they spat in
His face and beat Him with their fists; and others slapped Him, 68 and said,
"Prophesy to us, You Christ; who is the one who hit You?’”
There is something that we need to know about the
judicial systems that were in the nation of Israel and in fact what we have in
the Western world have their foundations in the legal system of ancient Israel,
which itself was founded on the standards set forth in their Scriptures, that
is the Old Testament.
I
want to quote Deuteronomy 16:18-20 which gives the essence of the Old Testament
system of jurisprudence: “Overview. The word
jurisprudence derives from the Latin term juris prudentia, which means "the
study, knowledge, or science of law." In the United States, jurisprudence
commonly means the
philosophy of law.”
“18
"You shall appoint for yourself judges and officers in all your towns
which the LORD your God is giving you, according to your tribes, and they shall
judge the people with righteous judgment. 19 “You shall not distort justice;
you shall not be partial, and you shall not take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the
wise and perverts the words of the righteous. 20 “Justice, and only
justice, you shall pursue, that you may live and possess the land which the
LORD your God is giving you.”
As one reads over these verse from Deuteronomy and
think about how when our country was founded that this is what they set up the
laws in our country, and that has to be good because it comes from the Word of
God. Now as one listens to what is going
on in our country now we can see that we have fallen way short of what the Lord
wrote to the children of Israel and our founders have patterned after that for
our laws. Satan is the one who is behind
what is going on in our country at this time, and he is using a Jewish man who
turned his back on the Jewish people during WWII. Yes he is old and his name is George Soros. His
parents should have named him Judas.
