Tim Keller on politics... well not exactly. In 1997 Tim Keller taught a sermon from Luke 23 that evaluated Jesus response to Pilate's question: "Are you King of the Jews?" This sermon titled "With a Politician" is from a series where Keller discussed the biography of Jesus life, highlighting key events. The backdrop is the Sanhedrin presenting Jesus before Herod & Pontius Pilate. The Sanhedrin had no political power though they desired to put Jesus to death due to his disruption on their authority of the Jews. Therefore, they brought him before the political power of the Roman government in order to execute their will. The Sanhedrin argue that Jesus is a threat to the Roman establishment. When Jesus is asked by Pilate about his authority over the Jews, Jesus answers ambiguously. All four gospels frame the conversation in the same manner. Pilate is attempting to discern if Jesus is a threat to the Roman order. The Jews had been seeking a political messiah for generations and desired to be redeemed from slavery. Jesus disrupted this conception of liberation. Jesus reply to Pilate was thoroughly unsatisfying... on the surface. He retorted, "you say". Why did he answer this way? Tim Keller explains that if Jesus had said yes, he would have relegated his authority to the political realm. If he had stated no, he would have limited His authority to the religious realm. Keller teaches that Herod and Pilate were paranoid of losing political power, yet they were not threatened by Jesus at all. Rather, they despised him and mocked him... not seeing him as a real force to be reckoned with. Jesus' approach to power was at odds with the world's notion. Keller teaches that the traditional understanding of effective influence requires coercion, control, self-promotion, reputation, and manipulation. However, he goes on to explain that Jesus never defends himself. Rather, real power comes through changing people, not controlling them. Jesus modeled and demonstrated strength through vulnerability and weakness. He shunned wealth, time, and reputation yet wielded more earthly power than any human ever. Tim Keller summarizes this point by claiming, "he can save others because he won't save himself". Keller invokes a quote from Napoleon Bonaparte, extracted from his writings while in exile at the end of his life. The quote states, "I built a kingdom on force and it melted away. Jesus built on love and it stands forever". Conventional power is superficial. Timothy Keller explains that many people approach Jesus wanting to know his politics. If you turn politics into an idol--for ex. conservatives idealizing the market or liberals idealizing the state--you will fail in your goals. Real change comes from the domain of religion, not politics. Finally, Keller introduces the character of Barabbas as the final major character in the scene. Barrabas truly was a political operative and revolutionary leader. His name also meant Jesus. Luke frames Jesus Christ as a different type of revolutionary leader than Barabbas. And we deserve the same fate that Barabbas did--pining away on death row. Here Tim introduces the theological concept known as double imputation. Jesus received our sins while we received his freedom. Keller explains how Barabbas was dangerous to the system, but could be put down by force. He asks the rhetorical, "how do you stop Jesus? His ideas are much more dangerous". Let's continue the conversation in the comments!!
