Dark Overlords

“The chief priests answered, ‘We have no king but Caesar.’ ” (John 19:15b)

            If we will not pledge our allegiance to Jesus, we will find ourselves in league with the darkest of authorities.  If you had asked the priests a few days earlier if they would have ever shown fealty to Caesar, they likely would have spat in your face.  This is the same priesthood that hated tax collectors and despised Jesus for even acknowledging that paying taxes to Caesar was appropriate.

Yet, here they are: joining Rome’s team to avoid accepting Jesus’ kingship.  When we run from Jesus, we never know what dark alley we will end up in.  Once we deny the true King, we open our hearts to dark overlords.

Matthew 4:4 #Biblebites
