Jesus Didn’t Have a Chance

I don’t think Jesus has a chance. No matter what the guy does, he loses. If he pleases those with a religious sensibility, he offends the masses. If he somehow manages to win the favor of the masses, he enrages the religious types. The guy just can’t win. I think a lot of Christians are in the same place today. If you can present Christ in an appealing manor to mainstream society, the religious subculture banishes you as some kind of sellout. And if the religious community accepts your presentation of the gospel, mainstream society exiles you to the very community that’s already heard and accepted your message. No wonder the guy turned water into wine.
