Religion is a human construct meant to "manage" both the populace and God, and to keep God at a distance. It works too. - the spiritual realm is part of (not separate from, or outside of) the "physical" world, just beyond our direct perception. In Jesus, God exhibits a Human form. - Jesus fulfilled/completed the Abrahamic covenant rather than replaced it. The new covenant is that of the rightful ruler taking up his reign. - While Christian theology may be complex, inventive, abstract and self-inconsistent, what Jesus taught can be summed up in two words.

- typo on Jesus’ dates (30 not 300)

- Jesus never taught religion and admonished the Jewish leaders for doing so. Religion is a human construct meant to “manage” both the populace and God, and to keep God at a distance. It works too.

- the spiritual realm is part of (not separate from, or outside of) the “physical” world, just beyond our direct perception. In Jesus, God exhibits a Human form.

- Jesus fulfilled/completed the Abrahamic covenant rather than replaced it. The new covenant is that of the rightful ruler taking up his reign.

- While Christian theology may be complex, inventive, abstract and self-inconsistent, what Jesus taught can be summed up in two words. Trust God.
