Revolutionary Teaching
You know teaching is revolutionary when after 2000 years of it being read, it is still just as revolutionary as the day it was taught. This is the case with Jesus teaching out of Luke 6.
Blessed are you who are poor . . . who hunger . . . who weep . . . when people hate you because of me, rejoice for great is your reward in heaven. Woe to you who are rich, who are well fed, for you have recieved your comfort . . . Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you.
These are all things that go against our experience on earth, but mysteries that belong to the Kingdom of God. God desires to bring mercy, love, and justice to those who have none on earth.

No kidding, His teachings are still contrary to what we are taught through life.
