Summary
And you'll notice that the Christ candle is a flame all Easter season starting with the day of resurrection Easter Sunday and all through the Easter season. And anyone that has heard of the name Jesus, anyone who has heard of Jesus Christ has a crystallology. And so if anyone has heard the name of Jesus of Nazareth, Jesus Christ, they have a crystallology. Their crystallology is that the Messiah would be one who would kill, not be killed, that he would kill the Romans, that there would be an overthrow of their power. And so, when the Messiah didn't fulfill their expectations, when the Messiah didn't redeem as they thought the Messiah, that should redeem, they became sad. We are tempted to have an understanding of the person and work of the Messiah that part of what Jesus is to do for us is to take away our problems.
