Blasphemy, in a religious sense, refers to the great disrespect shown to God or to something holy, or to something said or done that shows this kind of disrespect: heresy refers a belief or opinion that does not agree with the official belief or opinion of a particular religion- credit -Merriam-Webster Dictionary.
To begin with, Jesus Christ was brought before Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor by the authorities in Roman Judea for execution on charges of blasphemy for being called “the King of the Jews”. Pontius Pilate had the authority to have Jesus put to death. I think Pontius Pilate instinctually knew that Jesus was “special in the human experience” and did not want to crucify Jesus, so he handed the decision back to the people who were mesmerized by those that were threatened by the spiritual power that Jesus was endowed with. Pontius Piolet gave the angry crowds of people a choice of either saving a thief or Jesus, and as we know historically the crowd told him to save the thief. Be clear, Jesus cannot be put in the same category as a “convicted felon “! In fact, no one should claim to be in the same spiritual category as Jesus! It absolutely blows my mind to hear people like Marjorie Green liken Christ as a felon to Trump. This goes beyond my ability to be patient, bestow grace or mercy. This is a direct afront to not only “Christ”, but to “Great Spirit”. The life and significance of Jesus goes way beyond the confines of a religious confine! Christ was and is part of the great plan of “Great Spirit” to bring peace not discord, love not hate, compassion not arrogance, wisdom not insolence, discernment not for us to be obtuse of purblind.
I am not at all happy with the way we are engaging in this country, and across the world. We have in our human condition allowed ourselves to be swept up into lies, deceit, judgment, conditional love, void of compassion, greed, selfishness, cons, and the worst of all allowing the sacredness of “Great Spirit’s” gift to humanity- Jesus Christ to be once again hit with blasphemy and inuendoes of being an element of criminal character. We need to call people out when they do this because if don’t, then we have abandoned our responsibility for the sanctity of our faith and belief in the purpose of Christ life. We will have proved ourselves ungrateful and unworthy of the sacrifices He made to make this world what “Great Spirit” intended. It is not about being Christian or any other institutional system of religion. It is about the principles that Christ stood for that would make us a space to be the best possible version of our own “divine identity”.
This madness has to stop! We can’t keep allowing this misinformation and degradation of all that we know that sustains humanity to demise to complete destruction! Speak Up people! I don’t profess to be a theologian, but I know that they have no idea who they are dealing with. This is not about the God of the New Testament, this is about the God of the Old Testament, and that is a wholly different experience. Talk about judgment! From what I have read and understand, God of the Old Testament does not play! If I did not speak out about my convictions then I too would be complicit to this blasphemy on the character and divinity of Christ’s life and “work” to be a servant in the service of humanity.
