People make thier own choices to do the things that make the world the way it is,not God. Jesus was not part of a cult.The Pharisees were against Him because they were full of pride and self righteousness.They were more worried about pleasing men and getting noticed by men than pleasing God.Jesus tried to tell them more then once but they wouldn't listen.Overthrow the Romans?Why do you think He was always saying to obey the laws of the land and to give Ceasar what was due to him?
