Book Description
To better understand the Kingdom of God, let us examine three stories. The first story is when Jesus cleansed the temple. Infuriated by the selling of wares, He drove out the merchants with a whip. The message was clear. There was not going to be an economic recovery. The second story is when Jesus silenced the leaders with a simple question, If David called the Messiah his Lord, how can the Messiah be a son of King David?. Again, the message was clear. There was not going to be a religious reformation. The third story is when Jesus was arrested and tortured. Each crack of the whip, each beating, each insult, sent a clear message. There was not going to be a political revolution. Within hours, they traded Him for a murderer. All three examples show that every sign, wonder, and teaching was designed specifically to reach a target audience, inform them of their guilt, and offer a way out. As a result, Israel was left with nothing but their conscience. In other words, they killed the Messiah because they could no longer bear to look at themselves.
