The people of Israel did not know about the secret arrest of Jesus, the secret trial, the secret meeting with Pontius Pilate, nor the secret beating of Jesus by Roman soldiers; and by the time the people discovered the event at Golgotha, Jesus was dying on a cross, and His body was in a tomb before the sun went down: very quickly, very efficiently, and very secretively.
The killing of Jesus was the result of a secret conspiracy between the men of government and the men of religion because they did not want the people to know what they were doing behind their backs, behind closed doors, and under the cover of darkness.
Does this sound familiar today?
People of government are always gathering behind closed, conducting secret meetings.
People of religion also gather behind closed doors and conduct secret meetings.
Even when men of government and men of religion gather together today, they meet in secrecy, closing the doors behind them.
Yes, they have press conferences, they have their photographs taken, and then they disappear: and we are never told the truth about their secret discussions.
If people are truly transparent, why all the secrecy?
If they have nothing to hide, what are they hiding?
What are they doing behind our backs?
Should the people of nations know what their leaders are doing?
Should the people of religion know what their leaders are doing?
If we are to have open and free societies, should the leadership be open for public inspection?
Why do the leaders of religions not want their congregations to know about the money?
Why do the leaders of governments not want their citizens to know about the money?
How many people in governments and religions pay for information, just as Judas Iscariot was paid?
As it was in the days of Jesus, do we see the same system in operation today between the men of religions and men of governments?
But if people are not sure of how they want to think about men of government and men of religion, it would wise to consider what those men did to Christ, an innocent man.
