When Jesus was anointed by God he received a new revelation that was wholly benevolent and forgiving.
But the Pharisees and Priests taught judgement and punishment.
Their religion was legalistic and exclusive.
But after Christianity became the State Religion the Christian hierarchy reinstated the theology of judgement and punishment.
And so today we are faced with the same dilemma.
The revelations from God are in conflict with the teachings of His own Church.
But a closer investigation of the Old Testament reveals that the prophets were always in conflict with the religious and political leaders.
God sends His prophets to reform His Church.
So do not worry if your intuitive understanding of Jesus or God is in conflict with the Church.
Understand that it has always been so.
