The
early Jews believed that the coming of the Messiah would bring God's
judgement against evil. They were correct. So right they couldn't see
the truth of what was happening right before their very eyes.
The
Jews of Jesus' time “knew” that anyone who was crucified, or
“hung on a tree” was under God's curse. To be under God's curse
AND to be the Messiah seemed an unresolvable conundrum.
In
reality, Jesus came to our planet to bear the judgement and wrath of
Creator God against evil and those on the side of evil. Jesus, our
Messiah, our Saviour came to die in our place.
What
kind of a person would push away, or reject that kind of an offer?
