The beginning of Jesus’ preaching was actually a success. He began with great enthusiasm and with a very sincere conviction. He soon noticed that intellectuals and scholars didn't like to get involved in a revolution that could lead to conflict with the Romans. If it were the case, they would support him from the outside, but they were not ready to be dragged into an adventure by a young and inexperienced person. So, Jesus went to look for his disciples among young and simple people, but who were full of enthusiasm. They had nothing to lose, only something to gain, if things went well. Jesus' message was simple and immediate. He could easily convince and pull people towards a new future full of hope. A new fresh spiritual wind was blowing on the region of Galilee. The established religious power didn't pay attention to him. They were used to young fires that would be put out at the first rain, but my son had a special charisma.
He could convey my message to the people with authority, with my authority. In a short time, he became well-known. He used miracles as a means to convince his followers that his message was coming from Heaven. This was the tradition initiated by Moses and followed by most of my prophets.
One day he multiplied bread and fish for a few thousand people. As result they tried to make him their king. They had finally found somebody who could feed them, without them having to work. Jesus was shocked. In his pure heart, he could not believe such a selfish motivation. He didn't want to become King. His father God was the King of a new Kingdom. He refused and ran away. He became a victim of his own success. Then everybody left him. Only the 12 disciples guided by Peter remained loyal. Jesus took time for reflection. He went alone for 40 days to the desert, fasting and praying.
