Jesus is not a conservative.
“He who is given much, much is expected.”
“Whenever you’ve done it unto the least of these, my brethren, you’ve done it unto me.”
Jesus is not a liberal.
“The poor you have with you always. Do what you can.”
“Every good tree brings forth good fruit.”
Jesus is also not a vegan.
Too much talk about killing the fatted calf and eating it, and of course, there was that time he devoured the grilled fish by the seashore.
Jesus is not a member of the NRA.
“They that live by the sword shall die by the sword.”
“My kingdom is not of this world; otherwise my disciples would fight.”
Jesus is not religious.
“Avoid vain repetition.”
“Thinking with their much speaking that they are pleasing God.”
Jesus is not an anarchist.
“Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s.”
“I have not come to destroy the world, but to save it.”
Jesus is a FAITHOLOGIST.
He studied faith, analyzed it, prayed for it, praised it, wondered where the hell it was when it wasn’t there, and showcased it.
He was a Faithologist.
First he taught people to have faith in themselves…
“You are the salt of the Earth.”
“Your faith has made you whole.”
…then God:
“Our Father, which art in heaven.”
“If you, being evil men, give good gifts, won’t your Father give even better?”
In his Faithology course, he taught faith in Nature:
“You can discern the face of the sky.”
“Consider the lily and how it grows.”
And he taught us to have faith in others:
“Give and men shall give to you, good measure, pressed down, running over.”
“Love your neighbor as yourself.”
He came in human form to talk to human beings about human things in a human way, to encourage human excellence. He certainly was the Great Humanist.
But he taught this by extolling the power of faith–that even as a mustard seed, if we will not doubt in our hearts, we can move mountains.
