Christ is Dead - And You’ve Killed Him!
Yes you’ve read the title right. You murderer. You’ve killed the very icon you claim to admire. You’ve personally sucked the last breath out of his holy lungs and nailed him to the cross a second time. Permanently. And now he’s up there, rotting, you continue to stab his worm-eaten corpse with endless sin.
And I thank you.
Before you rally to your defenses, let me take you to the beginning. Genesis 3:2-5.
The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’ ” “You will not surely die,” the serpent said to the woman. “For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
The serpent was Lucifer in disguise and seduced Eve into sin. As you all know Eve ate from the tree and was banned from paradise. Man became sinful. But not to worry, God still loved us. He sent his only son down to earth to be sacrificed in order to forgive mankind for it’s sin. The only thing you’ll need to do is accept Jesus in your heart as your Lord and Saviour and everything will work out for you in the end. We’ll get back to that statement later.
Let’s take closer look into Genesis first. Paradise was a place where man had no idea about good nor evil, our eyes were closed. Only God knew the distinction between good and evil. Lucifer didn’t just bring enlightenment, or so-called sin, to mankind. Lucifer is enlightenment. It’s the literal translation of his name. The first sin of mankind was opening our eyes in order to judge for ourselves without the need of God. We became God.
When we take this into perspective and strip it down to the basics the story basically tells us mankind is unfit to choose between good and bad, and doing so is sinful. We should also choose to accept Jesus as our Lord and Saviour. The paradox is obvious but let’s ignore that for a second. Free will is a sin. You should not judge for yourself, you should not lead your life the way you like it. You should live by the will of God.
When we take a trip down memory lane we’ll meet some of the greatest adversaries of Christianity. Friedrich Nietzsche wrote in the Gay Science:
God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we comfort ourselves, the murderers of all murderers? What was holiest and mightiest of all that the world has yet owned has bled to death under our knives: who will wipe this blood off us? What water is there for us to clean ourselves? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we have to invent? Is not the greatness of this deed too great for us? Must we ourselves not become gods simply to appear worthy of it?
Aleister Crowley wrote in his Book of the Law:
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law
And maybe the most well-known of them all. Frank Sinatra.
And now, the end is here
And so I face the final curtain
My friend, I’ll say it clear
I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain
I’ve lived a life that’s full
I traveled each and ev’ry highway
And more, much more than this, I did it my way
Yes, even Sinatra. Almost every musician is a messenger of Lucifer and almost every Christian loves to hear them ol’ songs on the radio, I know you do! Tell me then, what’s the difference between “Your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil”, “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law”, “I did it my way” and “Listen to your heart”?
It has become the modern credo. Listen to your heart, follow your heart, let your heart guide your hand. Everybody is living by it. Everybody judges by the standards they hold dearest. It’s not just a sin, it’s the one and only mortal sin. It’s the only sin higher than those of the ten commandments. Accepting Jesus in your heart as your Lord and Saviour is the sin he has died for!
Admit it. Christ is dead. Lucifer rules supreme. Ave! Ave versus Christus! Ave Satana!
Good piece!
