The Gospel of the Kingdom Matthew 4:23-25
Jesus is about his fathers business
The biggest theme that Jesus talked about was kingdom. He talked about it more than anything. And as Jesus is going out to do his ministry- we see him walking out being about that lifeLuke 2:49 And He said to them, “Why did you seek Me? Did you not know that I must be about My Father’s business?”And that was what he was about- His father’s business. Nothing more- nothing less. Jesus’ push, was to please the father- and be about what he was to be about- The KingdomJohn 8:29 And He who sent Me is with Me. The Father has not left Me alone, for I always do those things that please Him.”Jesus was not a political revolutionary that worked within the worlds systems. That’s not what he came to do. IT wasn’t his mission, or his intention to do so. He was only about what the Father was going to have him be about. They crucified him bc he would be their king. Today, there are many people who want to hijack the mission of Jesus and the church and turn him and it into their own political movement to accomplish their own polical meansPolitics are rife with sin and discord, and as Christians- we should be involved- but not see them as our savior. I am going to vote for whoever is going to help the church. If someone said I had to pay 20% tax, but protected the church- I would vote for them. But people want to turn Jesus into something unscriptural- tell him what he should be doing
John 6:38 38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.If Jesus did what some of these people wanted they’d have him running for political office, changing laws, redistributing wealth, getting universal health care, fighting corporations, unionizing, marching for women, BLM, Anti-Guns, pro-guns, housing the homeless, feeding the hungry, doing a toy drive, building a house, or a whole host of other things. John 4:34 34 Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work.As a pastor- I can’t begin to describe to you the amount of people I have dealt with over the past 17 years that want me to get behind their missionI protect you, and the church- literally hundreds of people with all kinds of causes that want me to endorse them, put them in front of you, and have you champion their cause. Its almost weekly. But that’s not my mission. My mission is to pastor this flock. I need to shepherd our Church to be here in good repair when the Lord returns. I cannot allow someone to hijack our missionWorship, discipleship, giving, serving, fellowship. That’s the mission of the church. To the church, in the church, for the churchAnd the people that say that its church centric- don’t know their bibles- because the Bible is church centric. The mission is church centric. It all flows in and about and through and to the churchWhat does it mean to youDo not allow yourself to be pulled away from the fathers business and don’t feel bad about itYou cannot do all things for all people and be all things for all people. Please GodGalatians 1:10 For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ.You have to settle in your heart that pleasing God and being about his business is the only thing that matters to you. No matter what relationships it costs you. People struggle with being about the fathers business because they want for the things of this world. They find the Christian life restrictive and boring. 2 Corinthians 5:9 Therefore we make it our aim, whether present or absent, to be well pleasing to Him.Psalm 40:8 8 I delight to do Your will, O my God, And Your law is within my heart.”
