Some who are tied in to the cash flows with which they make a living will kill to protect them. When Jesus came to earth, He was more disruptive to the well-established cash flows that supported religious and government recipients than anyone in history.
Because He threatened the established order, the religious and governmental organizations were quick to kill Him. They did not understand that their actions were an exercise in free will written within The Creation Program from the beginning. That Program was written and downloaded precisely to give every human being on earth the opportunity to love most either The Loving Programmer or the things and people that He had programmed.
When it came time for The Program to take human form and come to earth, no one could be kept from making a choice. As unbelievers began to see buildings with a statue of a man bleeding and nailed to a crucifix, they had to ask “Who is that? What happened to Him? Why?”
Some dismissed what they saw. Their souls were not called to wonder. Others saw, investigated, and found a disconcerting truth: Love was stronger than hate and truth was more advantageous than lies.
The most amazing attack on established orders was launched from Heaven. As a result, over centuries, millions of celibate men and women began to lead their neighbors to value love more than money. Most money-men were not impressed.
But, even the richest among them are not able to keep even one Obama dollar one second longer than they lived.
