#24 - The Forgotten Gospel: Scapegoating
Manage episode 267113004 series 2290181
This a part of human sin that always leads to violence in order to relieve a person or a group of people of the anger that is inside of them. Every culture and every person on the planet does this it’s a matter if you're recognizing it or not. It is proven in science that there is a spiritual component to this where it does relieve people from their anger for a season but eventually a new scapegoat needs to be found again. The problem is eventually every person gets scapegoated which if not seen correctly will lead to more violence.
The biggest problem with scapegoating is that people end up using God’s name to justify our scapegoating on other people. For centuries every culture has used the name of God to do horrendous things while feeling totally justified and the USA is no different. Jesus became the ultimate scapegoat by people who thought they were doing it for the country (Rome) and religion (Israel) in order to show us that scapegoating does not work and in fact, it killed God.
