HE CAME TO FULFILL - TRIAL AND CRUCIFIXION: DONE NO VIOLENCE

Although Messiah was to be innocent, He would be condemned to die. Yeshua was without sin; He had done no violence. Still, they crucified Him. He became sin for us so that in Him we might become righteousness of God as written in 2 Corinthians 5: 21 (NIV).

The circumstances regarding the death of Yeshua point to the involvement of higher forces. All knew He was a good and godly man. So Him being crucified defied all odds. There had to be involvement by forces higher than man. And they were.

The expression “Many bulls surround me; strong bulls of Bashan encircle me,” (Psalm 22: 12, NIV) points to the rebellious spiritual beings that surrounded Yeshua while He was on the cross, says Michael S. Heiser. (1) What appeared to be defeat, though, was merely preparation for achieving an overcoming victory.

One day, we might have to deal with satan and his demonic realm, too. We can not avoid their attack, but we will walk through them and be victorious. As Romans 8: 28 says, “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”
