27th chapter Matthew

Verse 1 and 2

Even though the Jewish court condemned Jesus to death they could not legally carry out the sentence. Their mistreatment is there because satan is criminally insane.


Verse 3 - 10

The Sanhedrin has a problem. They know they gave Judas money to betray Christ. Judas is sorry and feels guilty. He might tell their secrets. In Acts Judas body is opened up. I think Judas had a little help with his suicide. The price that Judas received to betray Christ as well as what would be done with the money is written of in Zechariah 11:12 and 13.

Verse 11 – 14

Jesus being silent before His accusers is written of many times in the Old Testament. In fact, the whole life, death, and resurrection are written of hundreds of years before Jesus was born. Only God could accomplish such a thing. He doesn’t die and what He has purposed He is able to perform.

Verse 15 – 26

No one is in control of dreams. Satan is supernatural and can put images in your dreams and in your mind. What is ironic is that the people choose a person who took a man who took another man’s life over one that gives life. Why would you kill a man who could heal blinded eyes unless you liked blinded eyes? A week earlier they were celebrating Jesus coming into the city on a colt now they choose a murderer to be spared and kill Jesus. Jesus knew of His impending death and spoke many times of it.

Verse 27 – 31

Now it is the Roman soldiers turn to make fun of Jesus. Jesus said to take up your cross and if you don’t you will not be worthy of Him. I supposed you get a bigger crowd telling people what they want to hear but read 2 Timothy 4:1 - 5.

Verse 32 – 44

The Old Testament predicts many of these events and there is little Jesus could to make them happen. How could He make the soldiers gamble for His clothes while hanging on the cross? The words of the chief priests are found in the 22nd Psalm written 1,000 years before Jesus was born. Only God can accomplish this.

Verse 45 – 56

It was dark from noon until three o’clock, something supernatural is going on. The words in verse 46 are the first words of the 22nd Psalm. The words were not understood by the listeners because Jesus spoke the words in Hebrew. Matthew would understand, he wrote the whole book in Hebrew. The veil was a twenty foot curtain that was torn from top to bottom. This was to symbolize that things would change; no longer would a priest be necessary to approach God. We can come to Him freely and He will never refuse us. By the way, the veil was about three inches thick. Some of the Roman soldiers were smarter than the Jews. They could recognize that Christ was supernatural by the events that occurred around them.

Verse 7 – 61

That Jesus would be buried in a rich man’s tomb was written about in the 53rd chapter of Isaiah. The minor details differ from gospel to gospel. This is more believable than all gospels telling the same story. Nobody made this up. Matthew and John didn’t write about their experiences until some thirty years later. Mark and Luke were not disciples and received their information 2nd hand. What surprises me is every gospel agrees on every major point.

Verse 62 – 66

They are doing this to stop any lying but later when Christ arises they will pay these same soldiers money to lie. Some people still don’t believe in the resurrection. Time itself is based on this life of Jesus.

In the NT, everything that was allegedly fulfilled in the OT happened in the last week of Jesus' life. The entry to Jerusalem on a donkey (the Messiah would be anointed King of Israel, Zechariah 9:6). The "betrayal" for thirty pieces of silver. If Judas did commit suicide, he was Jesus' most dedicated and devoted follower. There were supposed to be three followers who would commit suicide. Zechariah 11:8. They were Adam, Matthew, and Luke and they were fraternity brothers at ATO from ODU. Alpha, Tao, Omega. Jesus died "the deaths of the uncircumcised". Ezekiel 28:10. The "instruments of a foolish shepherd" were tweezers and a mirror. Zechariah 11:15. The "vinegar" spoken of in Psalm 69:21 was beer. It is called "vinegar of strong drink". Numbers 6:3. The "thirty pieces of silver" was $7.50 paid in quarters. Zechariah 11:12. Everything that was done in the NT was an attempt to fulfill scripture. The "crucifixion" is something that would happen in the Messiah's childhood. "...it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation". Psalm 22:30. In the bible, a generation is forty years. This happened on 10/22/69. The year and day correspond to the Psalms it fulfilled, Psalms 22 and 69. Job 16 is also about it. The last thing Jesus is said to have fulfilled was the resurrection. Mary Magdalene started the rumor and she had 49 demons in her. If Jesus rose from the dead the way the NT describes, he is a Zombie.

No wonder people think you are nuts. Matthew 15:13

Creativity and genius can cause insanity. The mentally ill are the chosen. Psalm 38:7. "For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh". Job 30:18. "By the great force of my disease is my garment changed..." Psalm 41:8. "An evil disease, say they, cleaveth fast unto him..."

You think your insanity is caused by creativity and genius. Let's see what happens.

When VWD Day comes, I will be vindicated. It is the first day of the Lord and stands for Vengeance, Wrath, and Destruction. All the Messiah's enemies will die by bursting into flames, or spontaneous combustion. "...the enemies of the Lord shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away". Psalm 37:20. "A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about". Psalm 97:3. The Messiah will "...shew the lighting down of his arm, with the indignation of his anger. and with the flame of a devouring fire..." Isaiah 30:30. The Messiah's "fruit shall be a fiery, flying serpent". Isaiah 14:29.

What do you mean by vindicated?

The dictionary definition is: "to clear from criticism, blame, guilt, suspicion, etc.: uphold by evidence or argument".

I think you are insane. We will see what God thinks.
