Jesus, a means to realize the self

People say that they believe in Jesus and follow Him. But, to tell the truth, they follow Him as the tool for realizing the ambition of their old men in this world.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

They pursue realization of their selves in Jesus name, insisting that they must give to the poor, achieve social justice of freedom, equality, and benevolence, prohibit descent of ministry, and create the world to share public justice. In short, they dream the Utopia, a perfect society which can never be realized. It is the banner the politicians fly as campaign pledges, and is only the thing of the world, having nothing to do with Jesus.

If they make such an attempt while saying they follow Him, it means that they take Him to this place and that place as they like.

He has come to heal each of us and make us sons of God. Are you now walking the way to dump the ideas of the world you had by Jesus and be born again to have the heart of the son of God, or are you fixed to the idea of your self-righteousness and offended by Jesus?

[John 18:36] Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.
