Jesus said, “The thief comes to steal, kill and destroy.” Some people are destroyers, intent on ruining the lives of others. In the Bible, this kind of person is typified by Cain, who, in a fit of rage, killed his own brother at the dawn of humanity.

Spanish bullfighters often use a bright red cloth to enrage “El Toro” the bull and get him to charge. This is the origin of the expression “seeing red” when we are offended. When someone treats us badly, our first reaction is to strike back. Yet as Christians, we are called upon to respond quite differently. As the Apostle Paul taught the believers in Corinth, is it not better to suffer wrong than to sue a fellow believer?

Death is our greatest enemy. It is final. Nothing in medical science can re-animate dead tissue.

The place is called Skull Hill. Located outside ancient Jerusalem’s walls, this was the place of execution. Only common criminals were crucified, and that’s how Jesus was treated once He was condemned by the Romans at the urging of the Jewish leaders. He could have called legions of angels to destroy His oppressors, but went willingly to that cross For Us.

In a perfect world, the court system would exist to examine facts and determine the guilt or innocence of a person on trial. Yet this is not a perfect world. All too often trials are held with predetermined outcomes.
