Old Time Country Preacher

Would Jesus Have Checked what was Trending, then Adjusted His Message Accordingly?

Yep, the big rage now seems to be "what is trending?," like we sposed to adjust our preachin based on what is trendin. Do ya think Jesus woulda done this?

I reckon they's two sides ta that answer. On tha one hand, they's a couple places in the Bible where it says and Jesus, KNOWING THEIR THOUGHTS, answered them. Sounds like he knew where their thoughts was a trendin.
On tha other hand, Jesus stayed on the message that the Father gave him.

Don't know for sure about the message, but Imma thinking he would be wearing at least a leisure suit instead of the robe! I don't think it would be flip flops either, but the folk on the beaches in Florida might just differ. Embarassed

Sure He would.

Fishing was trending, so He preached about fishing and likened the Kingdom to it.
Farming was trending, so He preached about sowing and reaping and likened the Kingdom to it.

Paul did too.

In Athens (in Acts 17:22-31:
Idols were trending, so Paul preached about idols and picked one to preach to the kingdom.
Poetry was trending, so Paul quoted their poets and tied it into his message.
