The Christ’s Crucifiction

Total Life Christian Ministries - A Michigan based church on a mission

Cherokee elder John Red Hat told me he felt a very close affinity to people like Jesus, Gandhi, and other great spiritual leaders. Creator sent them, and he said we should pay attention.

Jesus, for instance, was a great teacher. He told us in many ways what our relationship to him should be. Once he looked at his disciples and said that these were his mother, sister, and brothers. Why would he say that? He clarified it by saying that anyone who did the will of his Father in heaven is his mother, his sister, and his brother.

He told his disciples to go into the jesus a gospel of love world and teach them what he had commanded them. But he also told them not to go into the way of the Gentiles, and not into any city of the Samaritans. He told them rather to go to the lost sheep of the House of Israel because he said he was only sent to them.

Wasn’t he sent to everyone? It appears that Jesus the man was sent to the lost sheep of Israel. But apparently Christ, the divine Love of God the Father within Jesus the man, was sent to everyone.

For what purpose would Jesus the man have been sent only to the lost of Israel?

When we look into history, we see in Torah that the God of Israel made a covenant with the Israelites on Mount Sinai. The Israelites agreed to abide by the Book of the Covenant and it was sealed when Moses sprinkled blood on them.

At the “Last Supper” Jesus broke bread. This was symbolic of the covenant with God that the ten northern tribes of Israel broke. Then Jesus told them to drink the wine. This was symbolic of the blood Moses sprinkled on the Israelites to seal the covenant.

In Hosea we read that God told the ten northern tribes of Israel (often called the House of Israel) that they were no longer His people and He was not their God. He had been like a husband to them and still they chose to break their covenant with Him.

So Father God could not redeem the whoring Israelites. He could not “marry” them again. However the Son of God could. That is why Jesus was sent to the “lost sheep of the House of Israel”. He redeemed them and repaired their covenant with the God of Israel through his pure offering of himself. (It was unconditional love in his heart that purified Jesus, and he kept unconditional love in his heart right to the very end on the cross.) Then God the Father could again be the God of the Israelites and they could again be His people. Jesus redeemed the lost sheep of Israel and repaired their covenant with God the Father. (Note however, that the covenant of the Jews was never broken so they did not need the redemption of Jesus.)
