Jesus performed several miracles in a specific angle, which is to attract the ignorant people first by miracles and then preach spiritual knowledge to protect Pravrutti (balance of society). The miracles were a must, in His case, because almost all the public was in the climax level of ignorance. Ignorant people will never pay attention to preaching unless significant miracles are exhibited. Scholars can receive preaching even in the absence of miracles. In fact, top most scholars even neglect miracles giving top most importance to spiritual knowledge only. Even though Shankara entered the house through bolted doors through miraculous power, Mandana Mishra neglected it and respected Shankara only after seeing His exceptional spiritual knowledge. Hence, miracles of Jesus in that time for those ordinary people were quite justified. All these miracles were performed by the Divine Father only and not by Jesus as Mary’s son. Since Divine Father as Holy Spirit merged with Jesus, Jesus can be taken as Son of God totally representing the Divine Father. It is very important to see which angle is taken by you when you take the name of Jesus. Hence, Jesus as son of God performed all the miracles, which means that all the miracles were performed by Divine Father only. Therefore, avoiding crucifixion was the intension of Jesus as son of God (or the Divine Father Himself) and the last prayer done by Jesus as Mary’s son was only to avoid the crucifixion proposed by the Divine Father or God.


Then, what is the intention of the Divine Father (or Son of God) in implementing the crucifixion? Knowledge alone can reform the soul permanently because it alone can convince the inner consciousness in free atmosphere unlike the punishment bringing temporary reformation by the pressure of force. Knowledge can’t be received by the minds, which are hard, due to intense ignorance. God wanted to create kindness in such hearts so that the minds become soft to receive the knowledge. The crucifixion of Jesus alone can kindle kindness in their hearts. If the people are not reformed by knowledge, the crimes of crucifixion of good preachers will continue forever even if the single crucifixion of Jesus was avoided. Based on this fundamental reason only, the crucifixion of Jesus was not avoided using miracle.


Lord tolerates anything, even things which damage

When the bonds with wealth, children and husbands or wives are fully broken, salvation is complete. Even Lord Jesus patiently suffered all the negative criticism and all sorts of insults to protect His devotees. This shows the divine love of Jesus. Jesus kept silent in the court when He was charged with so many crimes. The silence shows His deep love towards His devotees. Due to such silence alone did the judge order crucifixion. Unless the crucifixion was implemented, He could not have suffered for the sins of His devotees. Thus, the Lord tolerates anything, even things which damage His personality for the sake of His devotees. Due to the crucifixion, devotees misunderstood Jesus and criticised Him as incapable. Here, the firm faith of the devotees was tested.
