Tongues of Fire-Pastor Paul's Podcast-Episode #23-The Politician

Welcome to Tongues of Fire-Pastor Paul's Podcast-Episode #23-The Politician.

This message is one of a series of messages titled 'Faces About The Cross'. Each in the series looks at one face about the cross. The face about the cross in the message 'The Politician' is Annas. He was the father-in-law to Caiaphas the high priest that year. Pastor Paul describes the political environment in Jerusalem just prior to the arrest of Jesus. Annas was instrumental in the political affairs of the times.

Pastor Paul states that we are all politicians at times. We are concerned with maintaining control and ask the question, 'What's best for me?' Most times we are not friends to the people, but only to ourselves and our groups.

Many times power and money can make people dangerous especially when they rule from behind the scenes. Money talks. Fear and envy are characteristics of cowardice. When a man's privilege is threatened he will not surrender to its loss.

Since politics is how a group will make decisions, we should examine how politics in our lives affects our decisions. Are we concerned with going along with the crowd/group? How easily are we manipulated by the opinion of crowds/groups? How do we influence crowds/groups? What relationship does God play in our decisions regarding the questions about crowds/groups?

Can we stand alone?
