Bible Note: True, Christ (Messiah) is loaded with meaning. And most of the Jewish leaders expected the Messiah to overthrow the Roman Empire. But Christ made it clear that His kingdom (at that time) was not of that world. One day, during the Millenium, it will be. But, you're right. All they saw was Jesus of Nazareth, a carpenter's son. And they thought that because they 'kept the Law' that they would go to heaven. Even the disciples wanted to argue over who would be the greatest. I firmly believe the One who is the greatest is the One who was the most humbled - Phil 2:6-11. What a wonderful Savior! Blessings in Christ, Bill Mc |
