The simplicity that's in Christ
The King
First of all we are warned not to add or take anything away from the gospel. For instance “We” know that the Messiah was Jewish when he was on earth. Yes there are those Christians that will say well before he was on earth he and the father were one and he's God. What's the point. Well in general fact these Christians they want to have a share in the Messiah and a sense of belonging embedded in justification. And that's understandable as Christians. But you have to acknowledge the truth of how it really happened. God chose Israel particularly / Jerusalem and the Jewish people being the Jewish prophets as well to work his will. Even Mary. So to try to erase or diminish the lord Jesus Jewish ancestry is irrelevant because the Bible talks about the genealogy of Christ.
For example if Jesus was a Jewish rabbi just like the Jewish rabbis are then he's not this sixties cultural hero with long hair that smoke drugs and tells people peace man. (prince of peace yes!) There are a lot of counterfeits of Jesus. The Lord Jesus Christ is the Messiah. (Anointed one) We know that Jewish men have Jewish names. So why isn't the lords name Jewish in our Bibles and is it adding to scripture to say his name is “Yeshua” or even “Joshua.” The name Jesus is powerful. He knows we are referring to him. Well I once did a Bible study on this matter with a tad of apologetics. They said the Bible translators were not too honest in using that name. And they said they felt it would have sold less Bibles and because people were mad at the Jews that it wouldn't have got the word out but just caused trouble. They claimed this way more Bibles were sold and more people heard about Christ. Now I don't know in the Hebrew translated Bible if they are using the name Yeshua, Emmanuel or even Joshua. He simply is the Messiah. He simply is the anointed one.
People will argue that Abraham was a rich man and that Jesus had a money bag kept by somebody in his company. They will try to associate Christ with not being poor. There is word that he was a poor carpenter and a man well acquainted with sorrow. A man that people turned their face away from. A man despised and rejected of men. People will also say that they brought hundreds if not thousands of people to Christ. While people have come to Christ in different ways but you could ask the street preachers but it’s not as easy as they make it out to be. But of course it does happen all the time. Who are True Converts or not God knows their hearts regardless. God knows the intent. You know when pilot asked the lord Jesus Christ if he was the King or King of the Jews he said he is as he says so he acknowledged it. But his kingdom is not of this world. He said that pilot had no power over him other than that God his father had given him.
Money is a demonic entity unto God. This is the king of idols to many people. The Bible says teachers will receive greater condemnation. James 3:1 kjv
Judas did do things behind his master's back. But the master was all knowing. He said there's a devil among them. He was paid to sell out his master the lord Jesus Christ. Jesus said everyone given him was saved but the son of perdition Judas Iscariot. Are you saved? Have you sold your soul to the devil?
Open your ears. Really open your ears because greater is he that is in you then in the world.
1 Corinthians 3:16 King James Version
16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
Resist the devil and he will flee from you. A workman is worthy of his labor. Pray that God sends more laborers into the field. God is able to raise children onto Abraham. In the beginning was the word and the word was made flesh and dwell among us. The logos! The Word was with God.The Word was God.
Jesus is the king of kings and Lord of lords and every knee will bow.
