More Than Medicine - Who Really Killed Jesus?

Who Really Killed Jesus?

Who really killed Jesus? When Mel Gibson famously answered "I killed Jesus," he sparked controversy, but pointed to a profound truth that transcends simple blame. The crucifixion wasn't merely a historical injustice but the centerpiece of God's redemptive plan.
Examining the biblical narrative reveals multiple players in this divine drama. The Jewish religious leaders conspired out of jealousy and fear of losing their position. Judas betrayed his teacher for thirty pieces of silver. Pilate, despite recognizing Jesus' innocence, ordered his execution for political expediency while Roman soldiers carried out the gruesome task. Yet none of these actors fully explains the mystery of Christ's death.
The most remarkable revelation is that Jesus voluntarily laid down his life. "No one takes it from me," he declared, "but I lay it down of my own accord." His death wasn't a tragedy or martyrdom but the fulfillment of his mission to "seek and save the lost." Our sin necessitated this sacrifice, but it was ultimately orchestrated by God the Father himself, who "so loved the world that he gave his only Son." The crucifixion, planned "before the creation of the world," demonstrates both God's justice and his extraordinary love.
This understanding transforms everything. The Romans, Jewish leaders, and Judas were merely instruments in God's sovereign plan. What appeared as history's greatest injustice became the means of our reconciliation with God. The pressing question isn't who killed Jesus, but how we'll respond to his sacrifice. Will we ignore it, or will it lead us to receive Christ as our Savior and Lord? As you contemplate the cross this Resurrection season, consider what your response will be to this ultimate demonstration of divine love.

Are pediatric vaccines as safe and necessary as we've been led to believe? Dr. Robert Jackson challenges conventional wisdom in this eye-opening episode, drawing on his 43 years of medical practice to answer pressing listener questions about childhood immunizations.
Drawing back the curtain on vaccine history, Dr. Jackson reveals how measles, mumps, rubella, and other childhood illnesses largely disappeared before vaccines were introduced, thanks to improvements in public sanitation and hygiene. He shares striking statistics about measles - no child deaths in the US for over 20 years and a natural infection mortality risk of just 1 in 105 million, compared to vaccine adverse reaction risks of 1 in 168 children ending up in emergency rooms after their 12-month MMR shot.
Most startling is Dr. Jackson's discussion of the MMR-autism connection, citing CDC whistleblower William Thompson who admitted to participating in research fraud by omitting data showing increased autism risk in vaccinated children. "I've heard dozens of mothers tell me their child was developing normally until receiving the MMR vaccine," Dr. Jackson shares, explaining why he advises parents against this particular immunization. He also deconstructs the 2014 Disneyland measles outbreak narrative, revealing that most cases occurred among vaccinated individuals or were caused by the vaccine strain itself.
For concerned parents, Dr. Jackson offers practical advice on boosting children's immunity naturally and navigating college or military vaccination requirements through religious exemptions. He recommends resources including Dr. Paul Thomas's book "Vax Facts" and TheHealthyAmerican.com for those seeking exemptions based on First Amendment rights.
Want to protect your children while making informed medical decisions? Listen to this episode to discover what the pharmaceutical industry and mainstream medicine aren't telling you about pediatric vaccines and the safer alternatives available.

Uncover the secrets hidden within the opening verses of Genesis as we reflect on the profound moment when God commanded light into being, even before creating the sun. Through the insightful perspectives of Ken Ham's New Answers Book series and Henry Morris's The Genesis Record, we unravel how these early verses illuminate God's unrivaled sovereignty and His role as the ultimate source of light. By exploring the Hebrew word "yom," often translated as "day," we consider the implications of a normal solar day cycle established right from the beginning and how this reinforces our understanding of God's creative power over evolutionary theories that focus solely on natural phenomena.
Join us for an enlightening conversation about interpreting the Genesis days as literal 24-hour periods. We discuss how the rhythmic use of "evening and morning" provides clear boundaries and reflects God's precision and wisdom, affirming our faith in Him and His Son, Jesus Christ. We encourage you to engage with the material, bring your insights into discussions with others, and explore more resources through the Jackson Family Ministry's platforms. Let this episode strengthen your understanding of the reliability of God's Word and His eternal nature, reinforcing the importance of worshipping the Creator above all.

We challenge the conventional wisdom surrounding these vaccines, questioning their safety due to the lack of placebo-controlled studies.

More Than Medicine - MTM - Interview with Joe Wolverton : The Founders Recipe
play

05/10/25 • 28 min

Send us a text

Joe Wolverton takes us on a remarkable journey through the forgotten intellectual foundations of America's founding in this compelling conversation about his book "The Founder's Recipe." As a constitutional attorney and scholar for the John Birch Society, Wolverton shares the fascinating personal story that led to his discovery of 37 critical thinkers who profoundly shaped the minds of Jefferson, Madison, Washington, and their contemporaries.
The genius of Wolverton's approach lies in his metaphor: just as his grandmother's banana pudding required specific ingredients to achieve its remarkable flavor, the founding generation's exceptional character and courage emerged from a specific intellectual diet now largely abandoned. When we wonder why we don't see leaders of similar caliber today, Wolverton suggests we've been "substituting salt for sugar in our cookie recipe" - fundamentally altering the educational foundation that once produced such remarkable individuals.
What makes this conversation truly eye-opening are the specific examples Wolverton provides. Thomas Jefferson reading Roman history in Latin at age nine. A fourteen-year-old Jefferson writing in his diary that it was time to "put away childish things" and prepare for important work he felt God had for him. These anecdotes stand in stark contrast to our current educational outcomes and cultural expectations. Most surprising to many listeners will be Wolverton's revelation that the Apostle Paul was the figure most frequently quoted by the founding fathers - underscoring how deeply biblical thinking informed their understanding of liberty.
The Founder's Recipe isn't just historical recovery - it's a practical path forward. Wolverton describes teaching these materials to students who became so passionate they voluntarily continued classes through summer break. His conviction is simple yet profound: "If we read what they read, then we're liable to do what they did - throw off the chains of tyranny and protect our liberty for posterity."
Join Wolverton's free webinar on May 15th at 8:00 PM Eastern to learn more about these forgotten influences, and consider reading The Founder's Recipe to recover the intellectual foundation that might just help us reclaim the revolutionary spirit of liberty our founders intended.
