Matthew 17


 


 

Sell your coat and buy a sword "luke 22 "

Then Jesus said to his disciples

( when I sent you without a purse or a bag …. Did you need any thing ? .

Nothing " they said " but now . " Jesus said "whoever has a purse or a bag must take it , and whoever has no sword must sell his coat and buy one … )

In your opinion

Why did Jesus Christ move ,

Wide spreading his message from the stage of persuasion and miracles to the stage of taking all necessary material matters .

The reason is simple .

In the first stage it was easy for the first teacher to get his point across in his own divine ways .

While in the second stage " in which he would not be there " materially " he recommended his disciples and who believe in him to put in consideration the reasons .

That is readiness and good preparation for their mission from all materialistic sides .

Of course since they lived with Jesus Christ .

But when he is far from them ,

They must act like human beings , while spreading the message and the religion of Jesus Christ .

While being assaulted and harmed by the enemies of the new message .

And this is a great lesson to theist brothers and our clergy .

Thus , the problems of Christian community must be treated in a practical way .

That is , consideration of the reasons and good materialistic preparation of the human being .

Each realistic problem needs a realistic solution away from unsuccessful idealism.

And the first realistic necessities in our societies is resorting to power in everything " the sword ":

Power has many forms and methods ,

The most important one is the peaceful power .

Which means the power of social organization in the first place .

Since it gives people great ability in successful dealing with the various groups in which he lives .

Other form of power is the economical power and directing  it basically ,

To serve the church community and individuals .

My theist brother

A single realistic look to our societies convinces us with the necessity of power " with all its forms " in our life and in the first place comes the social organization which must be taken care of and worked on without fatigue or boredom .

And what we have to do to start .
