Bad Messiah, yeah right

No! No! NO! E. J. Park, is completely wrong. A Messiah who kicks butt is not the kind of Messiah this world needs, in fact it is quite the opposite. Parks thinks that to get the job down heads need to be knocked together and someone needs to come down and rain wrath on evildoers.

I do not think that Neo from the Matrix would be a very good Messiah. First of all he is a human who makes mistakes and would probably kill or hurt the wrong guys or would handle the situation wrong. Secondly his approach to a situation is kicking  people around (which is also the approach of the agent in the train station). He starts fighting the guy without even asking why the agent has come. Thirdly his fighting skills are very poor and I agree with
Jemimah that she could do a better job.
(these are pretty poor arguments)

Anyway, the way that Jesus approached the world, the way that He was born into this world was exactly the way He should've done it. He had to prove to the world that even though He had all this power that He could humble Himself enough to put Himself in our shoes. Jesus had to experience the suffering, hardships, and temptations that each one of us has to experience so He could better understand how to sympathize with us.

Because of the way that He came down He was able to help people suffering from illness and disability instead of becoming to busy with conquering the Romans. Bashing people's heads together to form a point is not the answer and Jesus knew that. Through His kind words and through His parables He was able to accomplish way more and win over the hearts of many because He took the kinder approach.

Plus by taking the kinder, more humble approach He gave each of us a choice as to whether or not we want to follow Him. If He had really used His power on the Romans or any other enemy it would not be fair because He has all the power. How would you feel if you weren't on Jesus' side and He just came in all of a sudden and started killing off all those who did not believe in Him or who were persecuting the Jews? It wouldn't be fair because, whether you like it or not, you would have to bow to His will because He has more power than you.

(I shall now step down from my soap box)

In conclusion I shall reinstate my earlier point that "knocking heads together is not the answer, but a kinder, more humble approach is."
