Jesus said, "If they do this in the green wood when the wood is green, what will they do when it is dry ?" Luke 23:31. …………….…and darkness came over the whole land and the veil of the Temple was torn in two
Luke 23:44

Let My followers never expect or look for an easy acceptance of My word : My attempts, through them, to establish the Father's Kingdom on earth will be fraught with difficulties, often bedevilled with evil from the powers which seek to destroy. Why should My followers expect a different fate from that of their Leader ? The better the good to be established the harder will be he fight from hostile forces. And the ignorant and uncommitted will align themselves with the forces of destruction.

But the victory has been won ! I have overcome the world. By My cross and passion there is salvation for all who reach out to take it and who allow My love and my life to grow and prosper in them and beyond them to the world the Father created and is constantly creating.

Those who persecuted Me even to the shades of death did not see the Son of Man , the Incarnate Lord, The Beloved of the Father : they saw only the hounding to death of an innocent man who had taught and loved and healed. The participation of the uncommitted in persecution is the reaction of all who, seeing good under judgement and persecution, destroy their conscience and share in that which is being done in the hope of burying it.

The veil of the Temple was destroyed at My death. The separation caused by sin was also rent, and I gained, through this reward of my death, perpetual access to my endangered children of all times.
