Crowds have a way of intensifying a battle a debate and in this case who should die or be set free. The majority in fact were 'Believers', who chose to execute Jesus and set Barabbas free. Thing is you and I can become so easily misguided and or persuaded by pressure that deafens your defenses. So midst all the mayhem and hysteria surrounding the cruxifiction, it was ultimately the Will of the Father so scriptures could be fulfilled. So which gate should you or I enter? For it says 'Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many who enter through it. For small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life.' Matthew 7:13-14 (NIV). So no matter the meddling of the crowds, madness does not win, false claims don't win, choosing evil over good don't win. Lets not give into things that keep us away from Him, away from peace and away from things that look good but ultimately destroys which to you in the heat of the moment the deafening impact the herdlike chitter chatter, seems good. Until the next time. In His love and grace
