The preferred references to Jesus are love, peace, patience, forgiveness, do unto others, turn the other cheek, and most of all unity and submission. But that is only a portion of the entire Jesus who is revealed in the gospels. He suffered a lot of people but he never submitted to anyone. Every hypocrite and every Herod got a mouthful of castigations and condemnations. He was incorrigibly correct and demanding. If you modify Jesus’ words, you defraud Jesus. If anyone thinks Jesus came to take a vote on his offers for eternal life, they have ignored the executive orders he brought from his Father. There was unrelenting autocracy in every word.
Jesus actively pursued evil doers and defined their malevolence in the open. He did not wear the letters “PC” on his tunic. He was a “oneway” preacher – either with him or against him. The only unity he endorsed was to himself and to his Father, no one else. “May they all be One” did not translate into coexistence. His accusing words of “Woe to you, Snakes and Vipers,” do not sound fruitfully unifying. But myth has it that Jesus is the Christmas baby and the Easter Risen Man who guarantees immortality with few requirements.
Today it is not Jesus driving Christianity, but the culture and its vandalism of morality are driving Christianity. Jesus is used for cover and good feelings so we can all say we are “people of faith,” while daily the Unborn in the Womb keep disappearing and the slander and lies of Media Giants decide the truth.
Jesus preceded Christianity;
Jesus will always exceed Christianity;
above all, he will never be embedded in Christianity.
The author has passed many generations on earth and can list several degrees and postgraduate degrees that need no enumeration. He has been very blessed in life with a highly dedicated mission-minded wife and two successful grown children with outstanding spouses and eight most remarkable grandchildren. He was baptized at one month of age and has stayed connected to Jesus his entire life. He was an educator earlier in life followed by a lengthy business career. He has learned and observed that the most important accouterments in life are truth and self-discipline. John the Baptist exemplified both; he entered life before Jesus and he died just before Jesus with the title of “the greatest man ever born to woman.” He had the honor of introducing Jesus to the world and the rest is history. They both died defending the truth with an enormous proclivity to self-discipline.
