Too many people want nothing more than to be led by a messiah.

Well, I'll say just a few tangential comments. Jesus Christ came so we can reform OURSELVES. You can only help others, or even society, once we have reformed ourselves. People indeed look for saviors in our fallen world, which is impossible.

Also, once you are led by Jesus Christ, then you will be led by no one else. Its very liberating - every charlatan, politician, CEO, TV talking head just fades away. Everyone else loses credibility or the power to control you, and you are a fully independent and functioning individual.

“Jesus Christ came so we can reform OURSELVES”

Sorry, no. Mankind is wholly unable to “reform” himself. That is what has been proven by the dispensations that mankind has lived through in the past. Count yourself VERY fortunate to have been born in the Dispensation of Grace.

In the movie Lazarus gave one third of his wealth to the church. Not enough. Jesus said give it all. That makes Lazarus a democrat and Jesus a communist.
