Saviors

Σωτῆρος Sōtēros is the Greek word for saviour.

The word sōtēros in Greek is the word that Augustus Caesar applied to himself. He said he was the savior!

He was the Savior of the world of Rome and with his power as Emperor he was able to establish his “Pease on earth,” with his "Pax Romana". He had coins minted with his head on them which were loaned into circulation.

He also set up a system of social welfare through the state run temples.

The free bread of Rome was the Qorban of Caesar. Like the Corban of Herod and the Pharisees they were systems of "legal charity" which were the antithesis of the Corban of Christ which based on fervent charity.

Christ was a different kind of savior. The table of Christ set men free but the table of Caesar made men merchandise and often will curse children because it was a snare baited with deceitfully meats.

Both Caesar and Jesus

Both Caesar and Jesus were called "saviors".

They were both called Lord.

They both offered social safety nets for the welfare of the people.

They both offered free bread for the needy of society.

They both had ministers or administrators to feed their people.

Caesar was called the "Patronus" or Father of the earth to whom the people prayed to for their daily bread and security while Jesus said to call no man upon the earth father.

One operated by ,fealty, force, and fear and the other operatby faith, freewill offerings and the perfect law of liberty.

=== indeed the Christ =={

"And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world." John 4:42

Christ, meaning the annointed like David who was the king of Israel, and Jesus had been proclaimed as the "highest son of David" and heir to his throne and also proclaimed the rightful "king of Judeans" who were the remnant of [[Israel], which was the kingdom of God.

It has always been a danger to the liberty to eat the dainties at the table of rulers. Christ forbid His Church to be like those men who call themselves benefactors but but who exercise authority one over the other.

Our hope

"Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Saviour, and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope;" 1 Timothy 1:1

Can anyone honestly claim to be a follower of Christ while the eat at the table of Caesar or of any rulers who calls themselves benefactors of the people who exercise authority one over the other to put those dainties of rulers on the welfare of the State?

Our conversation

"For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:" Philippians 3:20

The phrase "our conversation" is from the Greek word politeuma when Paul reminds the people if Jesus is their king then the "the administration of civil affairs or of a commonwealth" of Christians is in the kingdom of heaven which is one form of government and the laws by which it is administered" is the law of love, not force or "covetous practices" through men who force our neighbor and our brothers to contribute to our social welfare through the civil authority of Caesar and the dainties he offers upon it.

Caesar's world has its own "constitution of a commonwealth, form of government and the laws by which it is administered]] which provides free bread and welfare which offer a table of benefits which are a snare which make the "commonwealth of citizens" human resources and curse children as the surety for dept until all are in a "state" of bondage. Peter, Paul, David and the and all prophits have been warning from the beginning.

This was the Christian conflict with the world of the "government of Rome" which was not like the "kingdom of God".

A righteous Savior

"Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ. 2 Grace÷ and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord," 2 Peter 1:1

Saviour of the world

1 John 4:14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

Jesus was sent by his Father in heaven that the world "might" be saved. His kingdom was not to be of the world of Rome nor were his apostles and ministers to be of that world.

Abiding believers

1 John 4:15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. 16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. 19 He that feareth is not made perfect in love. 19 We love him, because he first loved us. 20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? 21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.
