But remember, TideGlider: Jesus said:

Render unto Caesar that which belongs to Caesar and to God that which is God's.

This is a clear indication that Jesus did not believe in the powers of the world to set things right. He believed that the individual heart must be made right before anything else can be right. And it was the individual heart of each and every man, woman, and child that occupied Jesus' ministrations.

As for the Hebrew priests (the leaders of the Jewish Faith): The record of Jesus' life tells us over and over again that Jesus offered his ministrations to them just as he did to all others. Remember the scripture: "He (Jesus) came into his own and his own received him not but as many as received him to them gave he power to become the Sons of God, even to them that believe on his Name."

Jesus was not a philosopher. He was not a politician. He was a man with a special mission. He was God Among Us, having taken upon himself our form and our substance and our failures in order to bring to us the knowledge of God in the flesh and to make it possible for us to be renewed in our flesh to God. "If you would see God then look upon me, for I and the Father are One."
