Provoking Jesus to Jealousy

When you think of God being a jealous God, you’d be forgiven for first imagining Exodus chapter nineteen and the burning, billowing kiln of Sinai.

However, like the Corinthians, dismissing the possibility of idolatry in the church being a major problem is to wrongly assume that Jesus Himself is not provokable into jealous fury.

Paul was convinced that, in the New Testament, God was unchanged from the Jewish Scriptures in His intolerant and exclusive demands on His covenant people.

This is the penultimate session looking at godly human jealousy, this time in the lives of David, Paul and Christ Jesus Himself.

But what will you do when the end comes?

“An appalling and horrible thing
has happened in the land:
the prophets prophesy falsely,
and the priests rule at their direction;
my people love to have it so,
but what will you do when the end comes?”

— Jeremiah 5:30-31

Will the Church look at herself in the mirror or continue prancing around dishevelled?

Please listen carefully to the I AM JEALOUS teaching series: sermons to awaken us to spiritual reality and our delusions of innocence. 

“What am I to you, that you should command me to love you and, if I do not, you should be angry with me and threaten great miseries?” (Augustine)
