===Quote===
“... Jesus won [[[Simon Zelotes]]] for the higher concepts of the [[kingdom of heaven]]. He had always identified himself with the party of [[protest]], but he now joined the party of [[progress]], unlimited and eternal progression of [[spirit]] and [[truth]].” ([[139:11|UB 139:11.7]])
===Lesson===
Thought Adjuster: “As you can imply from the above quote, there is a world of [[difference]] between being a protestor and a progressist. As witnessed in [[your world]], both tendencies shaped history. However, a mere protest will not necessarily bring about progress if it does not suggest better operative ways and the follow-through of hand-on implementation.
“[[Protests]] often turn into [[hate]] – and resentment-driven [[riots]]. [[Jesus]] never condoned such [[behaviors]], as they are counter-productive to establishing the family of man under the loving divine parenthood. He told Simon that it was proper to want to see the social, economic, and political orders improved, but he would always add: «That is not the business of the [[kingdom of heaven]]. We must be dedicated to the [[doing of the Father’s will]]. [. . .] we must not immediately concern ourselves with naught but the representation of the will and [[character]] of the divine Father who stands at the head of the [[government]] whose credentials we bear.» ([[139:11|UB 139:11.9]])
“As the spiritual savior of humankind, Jesus entertained a long-term [[vision]] that encompassed [[past]], [[present]], and [[future]] [[generations]] of souls. ‘Activists’ are the movers and shakers of modern times, as they draw attention to areas in need of reformation. Do not discard their role as social reformers, as they are [[catalysts]] for [[change]].
“However, Jesus’ [[discipleship]] is called to principally devote their energies to promoting his spiritual vision, as there is a shortage of laborers in that field. Jesus laid the groundwork while living among men and needs many diligent stewards of his legacy.
“The [[altruistic]] interests of the kingdom of the heart require pointed spiritual lobbyism. Do not squander your precious life force in engaging in [[trivial]] matters. Go after a worthwhile calling that adequately caters to your [[soul]]’s needs.”
