GFY Bible Study 10/01/06 : Have You Ever Wondered Why..

Have you ever wondered why when you hear evangelical testimonies of "leaving sin" "turning to God" "leaving porn for Jesus" that it always involves a pious prayers and self interest, or a political motive, or maybe even a financial motive - but one thing you'll never hear from those who leave porn for Jesus is that they are leaving porn to serve Jesus by serving his people, the homeless, the widows, the orphans. You'll never hear a pious soul who has "left porn for Jesus" out on the street passing out sandwiches to the homeless, visiting the widows and elderly, or volunteering their time with orphans.

I propose to you today that the evangelical right Jesus is a FALSE JESUS. And I'm going to show you in this Bible study why serving Jesus isn't about quitting your job, but that it is about serving Jesus as he exists today through the eyes of a widow, an orphan, a homeless person, a mentally ill person, and any person who is the discarded trash of our self serving, pious, hypocritical society.

Open your Bible and follow along with me:

1. Who killed Jesus and why?

Jesus was harassed and ultimately brought to his untimely death by the religious conservatives of his day. And it's no wonder why they wanted to kill him, he was the champion of the marginal persons of society. Not only that, but he didn't go about it quietly, he reserved all of his harshest indictments in the gospel for the religious conservatives of his day, not for pornographers or gays.

Matthew 21: 31--46

"Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you. For John came to you in the way of righteousness and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him; and even after you saw it, you did not change your minds and believe him. "Listen to another parable. There was a landowner who planted a vineyard, put a fence around it, dug a wine press in it, and built a watchtower. Then he leased it to tenants and went to another country. When the harvest time had come, he sent his slaves to the tenants to collect his produce. But the tenants seized his slaves and beat one, killed another, and stoned another. Again he sent other slaves, more than the first; and they treated them in the same way. Finally he sent his son to them, saying, 'They will respect my son.' But when the tenants saw the son, they said to themselves, 'This is the heir; come, let us kill him and get his inheritance." So they seized him, threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him. Now when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?" They said to him, "He will put those wretches to a miserable death, and lease the vineyard to other tenants who will give him the produce at the harvest time." Jesus said to them, "Have you never read in the scriptures: 'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; this was the Lord's doing, and it is amazing in our eyes'? Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people that produces the fruits of the kingdom. The one who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; and it will crush anyone on whom it falls." When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they realized that he was speaking about them. They wanted to arrest him, but they feared the crowds, because they regarded him as a prophet."


According to the scriptures, many people here on GFY will enter the Kingdom of God before the pious evangelicals do! Jesus said it himself.

Let's look at some more scriptures that address Jesus righteous anger toward religious conservatives of his day:

Matthew 23: 1-39 :
"Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples, "The scribes and the Pharisees sit on Moses' seat; therefore, do whatever they teach you and follow it; but do not do as they do, for they do not practice what they teach.
They tie up heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on the shoulders of others; but they themselves are unwilling to lift a finger to move them. They do all their deeds to be seen by others; for they make their phylacteries broad and their fringes long.
They love to have the place of honor at banquets and the best seats in the synagogues, and to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces, and to have people call them 'rabbi'. But you are not to be called 'rabbi', for you have one teacher, and you are all students. And call no one your father on earth, for you have one Father--the one in heaven. Nor are you to be called 'instructors', for you have one instructor, the Messiah. The greatest among you will be your servant.
All who exalt themselves will be humbled, and all who humble themselves will be exalted.
But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you lock people out of the kingdom of heaven. For you do not go in yourselves, and when others are going in, you stop them.
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you cross sea and land to make a single convert, and you make the new convert twice as much a child of hell as yourselves. . .
"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint, dill, and cumin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faith. It is these you ought to have practiced without neglecting the others. You blind guides! You strain out a gnat but swallow a camel!
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you clean the outside of the cup and of the plate, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence. You blind Pharisees! First clean the inside of the cup, so that the outside also may become clean.
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs, which on the outside look beautiful, but inside they are full of the bones of the dead and of all kinds of filth. So you also on the outside look righteous to others, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you build the tombs of the prophets and decorate the graves of the righteous, and you say, 'If we had lived in the days of our ancestors, we would not have taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.' Thus you testify against yourselves that you are descendants of those who murdered the prophets. Fill up, then, the measure of your ancestors. You snakes, you brood of vipers! How can you escape being sentenced to hell? Therefore I send you prophets, sages, and scribes, some of whom you will kill and crucify, and some you will flog in your synagogues and pursue from town to town, so that upon you may come all the righteous blood shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah son of Barachiah, whom you murdered between the sanctuary and the altar. Truly I tell you, all this will come upon this generation. "Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! How often have I desired to gather your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing! See, your house is left to you, desolate. For I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, 'Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord.' "


2. Jesus hated personal piety and self interest. This was ultimately a big reason behind his actions in the temple the day he chased the money changers out. What was going on at the temple is that items were being sold for the purposes of personal piety and pious prayers as well as the exchange of money.

Matthew 21 12-13

And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,

And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.


And what does Jesus do immediately after chasing out these scoundrels and pissing off the religious conservatives? Why, he starts taking care of the sick and the poor immediately in the next verse!

14And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.

And what is the reaction of the religious conservatives to Jesus for his great mercy to the downtrodden of society? In the very next verse, the Jerry Falwells of the day are not at all pleased, to say the least.

15And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the son of David; they were sore displeased

It takes a sick and twisted and greedy mind to be "sore displeased" over someone ripping down the money collection and pious accessories of the temple and turn the place into a place of caring for the sick and the poor.

I give the short version of all of this here, and this is a long post already. If Jesus were alive today I can promise you one thing: some evangelical conservative would take him out with a high powered rifle.

So if you are thinking that you need to "get out of porn" or "become a christian" and "serve Jesus" you are barking up the tree of the false conservative evangelical Jesus, that has abosultely 0 to do with the Jesus of the gospels. Yes, all of those people can be wrong, and they are wrong. There is no glory in serving Jesus. You want to serve Jesus today? Make a few sandwiches and take them out on the street and pass them out to the homeless, go visit some widows and shut ins at a nursing home for a few hours, go take some toys to an orphanage, go take some toys and food to an animal shelter. Forget about prayer for "god to forgive you for your porno sins" DO AS JESUS COMMANDED. Shit or get off the pot. THAT is the message of the real Jesus.

I found Jesus. He was driving a Hummer and had gold teeth, and the biggest gold cross on chain you've ever seen.
Talk about bling.

Amazingly no! Although while I was reading it I was like ?what the fuck, is this me??

This is a summary from what I got from TheRealJesus's post: Jesus was a communist, a hippie, and a liberal douche bag. He would rather fill heaven full of leftist potheads devil worshipers rather than the religious right who actually worship him today. Man Jesus is a fucked up ghost.
