I think the indictment for us is, do we actually hear what Jesus is actually saying here? And what Jesus is saying to him, let's bring it full circle. He's got a zealot in the crowd. He's got swords and pockets. He's got animosity and hearts. And Jesus says, if you want to follow me, if you want to advance the kingdom, put the sword down, put the gun down, put the bullets down.

I mean, yeah, protect yourself why you want. He does say take up a sword, but that's for

protection, not action and offense. Strike, no, he's protect yourself, but you need to be a maker

of peace. You need to be a disseminator of peace. And you must adopt this mindset as a

Christian man or woman of Christ, remembering, well, what, it's not fair? They did me wrong.

Well, of course they did. So did Jesus. They treated Jesus unfairly. Well, my friends abandoned me.

So did Jesus. Well, they turned against me in light. Well, so that they do that to

Jesus. Well, they try me for a crime. I didn't commit. Well, they did that to Jesus.

Welcome to the Forgotten Jesus podcast.

I'm your host, Adam French.

I'm here with Pastor Dr. Robbie Gowdy and Miss Candy Gowdy.

Hello. We're excited to get started with you.

Now, a couple things have been brought to my attention.

One of them is I had some conversation with your with your dad recently.

Oh, gosh.

Did you know about this?

Oh, no.

Please.

I told you that had a conversation with your going. We love Mr. Bob. We love him, but there's no telling. The older my dad gets, the more unfiltered he becomes. Yeah, he was just, he was said, he said there was a time in your life when you, I'm not saying that you didn't think this or not.

He just said, you thought you were so cool that you were not allowed to laugh. So he said he would try to get you to tell you jokes. He would try to tell jokes and you would get mad because he would say, you would say, I'm too cool to laugh. Yeah, yeah, I'd say. I don't want to laugh.

I don't laugh.

Too cool.
