Jesus, revolution and unjust authorities

Jesus could easily have used his influence to create a revolution, a change of social structures. the apostles did create a revolution, but it was through bringing individuals face to face with Christ and His power, building and bringing them into the church.

Jesus himself never did raise his hand to abolish the established authorities, wicked as they were. He honoured the authority though being God Himself. Paul also honored the high priest when hit and interrogated unjustly. quoting' you shall not speak against the leader of your people, he walked and fulfilled God's law.'

The Kingdom comes, an invisible Kingdom, totally imperceptible to the natural mind, like whitish-yellow yeast in yellow tinged flour, it blends in totally. Like a seed secretly growing underground, with constant feeding it grows very very slowly and unoticed to the natural eye and mind.
