Looking at the mood of the conversation environment testosterone levels on the rise, almost sounds like dissension in the ranks huh?
Matthew 22 24 A dispute also arose among them as to which of them was considered to be greatest.
JESUS only wanted calm the situation before it escalated.
Matthew 22 [SUP]25 [/SUP]Jesus said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those who exercise authority over them call themselves Benefactors. [SUP]26 [/SUP]But you are not to be like that. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who rules like the one who serves.
Now I have been in a lot of situations and always when I am neck deep in pig slop who shows up? Matthew 22 31 “Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift all of you as wheat.
Sifting someone back then is to take them and shake them violently to remove the wheat not like now with combines and such imagine your Faith shaken like that!!!! So in order to help them find center he reminded them of who they were in him, with him.
[SUP]Matthew 22 35 [/SUP]Then Jesus asked them, “When I sent you without purse, bag or sandals, did you lack anything? “Nothing,” they answered.
Keep in mind they are focusing on worldly because Satan has begun his sifting process and each of them are prepared to self-destruct as Peter said!!!!
[SUP]Matthew 22 33 [/SUP]But he replied, “Lord, I am ready to go with you to prison and to death.”
Jesus understands that their thinking is not on him anymore but on the world, it is that reason that he gave them the notion of the world in which they sought!!!
[SUP]Matthew 2236 [/SUP]He said to them, “But now if you have a purse take it, and also a bag; and if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.
[SUP]Matthew 22 49 [/SUP]When Jesus’ followers saw what was going to happen, they said, “Lord, should we strike with our swords?” [SUP]50 [/SUP]And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear.
[SUP]51 [/SUP]But Jesus answered, “No more of this!” And he touched the man’s ear and healed him.
Thank you FATHER for helping me to see this through your eyes and not my own.
