Meaning In The Midst Of Mayhem

2000 years ago Jesus, the ONLY Savior of mankind, the undisputed most controversial Jewish guy ever (and a son of David, today still God in human flesh), had just left Pontius Pilate's porch dragging a big rugged cross upon which he was about to be crucified. Because our loving God/Creator did not simply make a 'Jesus bot' to come, suffer and die for the sins of the people he loved so much, the Holy Spirit had, thirty-three years earlier, impregnated Mary, a descendant of King David, with our Lord and Savior. And so God's Son, (a.k.a. "The Word" of the Holy Trinity), who had just been beaten senseless, was about to walk to his death on the hill they called 'Golgotha' (meaning: 'place of the skull'). He would there be tacked to that big (probably sycamore) cross and 'bleed out' just like a meat sacrifice that the Temple priests would drain of its blood before it was consumed in flame. The smoke of that burning meat caused that big Temple in Jerusalem to smell like the best steakhouse you have ever experienced. And to the heart of God, and in the hearts of His sincere priests and followers, the smell of that great Temple of Solomon was just as exciting and attractive as the steakhouse.
