Reject Power Over, Embrace Christ's Love

The essence of Jesus' mission was to replace the world's systems of power with a kingdom defined by love and service, rather than dominance or control. His arrival was not to provide a different form of political power or to support existing political structures, but to propose a transformative approach to living that rejects any form of power over others. Followers of Christ are called to embody this principle, prioritizing love for enemies and blessings for those who persecute them, over engaging in worldly power struggles. Emphasizing a distinct separation between the kingdom of God and any human political system is crucial for authentic Christian living.
