Man and beast exert themselves to survive-by fight, flight, or
submission. Respecting the pecking order prevents conflict, but
when leaders are challenged, lethal fights for dominance may occur.
However, the survival of the fittest is sometimes thwarted by the
sheer tenacity of the underdog. In first century Corinth,
nine-year-old Jason is teased and bullied by his pugnacious rival,
Krato, who is two years older. Jason's grandfather urges him to
take the submissive role until he and his rival are both adults.
Then the two year difference will vanish, enabling Jason to throw
off Krato's reign by beating him in the discus and javelin events
at the Isthmian Games. When that long anticipated day arrives,
Jason is both winner and loser. His dream turns into a nightmare.
He flees for his life, bringing immense hardship on himself and his
beloved Tabitha. Sexy Diana tries luring Jason in the wrong
direction. The apostle Paul arrives with the holy gospel in their
wicked city. The Christian message is woven into the fabric of
choices and consequences. Circumstances beyond their control
eventually bring the four Corinthians together in a place of
horror. In the face of death, old beliefs are turned upside down.
They only have a broken spear for defense.
THE YEAST OF YERUSHALAIM. Jesus said that the Kingdom of God is
like yeast. As yeast is worked into the dough and changes its
structure positively, so the gospel is dispersed into societies and
changes them from the inside. To mix the yeast of the gospel into
societies, Jesus sent His disciples out to make disciples of all
nations: "You shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come
upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all
Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth" (Acts 1:8).
Jerusalem is pronounced Yerushalaim in Hebrew. In this city Jesus
was crucified, raised from the dead, and ascended to heaven, and to
this city He will return. In Jerusalem, the Holy Spirit came into
the hearts of believers, inspiring them to spread the gospel
worldwide. The Acts and letters of the apostles show how the yeast
spread throughout the Roman empire in the first century. When the
yeast of Yerushalaim has done its work, Christ will return to renew
heaven, earth, and Jerusalem.
Yeshua or Yahshua is the Hebrew form of the name JESUS. Yeshua
means the LORD's salvation-the perfect name for the Savior. Yeshua
took our hard yoke of sin on Himself and He placed a soft yoke of
devotion on us. He said, "Take my yoke upon you ... and you will
find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy." Real peace is
linked to a yoke. To discover the secret of this paradox, one has
to study Yeshua's life. He has relieved millions of their burdens
and inspired them with new energy. The Yoke of Yeshua harmonizes
the four gospels into one story. It shows how events followed each
other and then it explains their meaning in context.
