Jesus Speaks Plainly
Politically Incorrect
But DIVINELY Correct
PURPOSE
The purpose of this document is to dispel the notion that Jesus firmness in Teaching and delivering Warnings lies somewhere between that of strained oat meal and watery mashed potatoes. There is no doubt that His Tenderness and Mercy know no limits, but Christians need to understand that His Teachings, Complaints and Warnings should be taken very seriously - just as they were delivered.
INTRODUCTION
The way most Christians talk about Jesus one wonders if they are referring to Tiny Tim "tip toeing through the tulips" instead of the manifestation of God with the definite intention of making sure everyone understood what the prophets had been trying to convey to a deaf and blind humanity for centuries.
By the manner those prophets were treated, one would think that they were selling brushes door to door or used cars after a flood. That is why God, the Father, sent His Son - His Living Word. He really loves us that much and wants to make sure all who need to be warned is clearly warned.
Let us keep in mind that God IS NOT "on commission" and everything is for our own benefit - not His!
Let us not dilute His life-giving Teachings and Warnings in a sea of sweetened mush. [Matthew 21: 33-44]
DETAILS
Some years ago, a priest (1), unhappy with our direct and less than mushy exhortations, wrote and told miguel de Portugal that his mother had given him a very wise advice while he was sitting on her lap as a little boy. According to his story, she taught him that one could catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.
miguel wrote back and informed that poor and disoriented priest that, in case that he had not noticed, Mary seemed to have failed to teach Jesus that lesson. The awareness of yet-another-flawed theological principle in the repertoire of those-who-should-know-better is the motor of this document which has been in the inkwell for too many years.
What we have done is to select the verses from the Holy Scriptures (2) wherein Jesus was "less that sugary". We intended to use quotes from all four Gospels, however, after just going through the Gospel according to Matthew we realized that it contained more than enough material of Jesus' directness.
CONCLUSION
The majority of Jesus' words were not honey laden strained oat meal - most of them are very hard and direct words with no room for doubting exactly what He meant and why.
Judge for yourself....
From the Gospel According to MATTHEW (2)
Chapter 5
13 You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt lose its savour, wherewith shall it be
salted? It is good for nothing any more but to be cast out, and to be trodden on by men.
20 For I tell you, that unless your justice abound more than that of the scribes and
Pharisees, you shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
22 But I say to you, that whosoever is angry with his brother, shall be in danger of the
judgment. And whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council.
And whosoever shall say, Thou Fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
26 Amen I say to thee, thou shalt not go out from thence till thou repay the last farthing.
27 You have heard that it was said to them of old: Thou shalt not commit adultery.
28 But I say to you, that whosoever shall look on a woman to lust after her, hath already
committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 And if thy right eye scandalize thee, pluck it
out and cast it from thee. For it is expedient for thee that one of thy members should perish,
rather than that thy whole body be cast into hell. 30 And if thy right hand scandalize
thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is expedient for thee that one of thy members
should perish, rather than that thy whole body be cast into hell.
37 But let your speech be yea, yea: no, no: and that which is over and above these, is of evil.
37 But let your speech be yea, yea: no, no: and that which is over and above these, is of evil.
Chapter 6
5 And when ye pray, you shall not be as the hypocrites, that love to stand and pray in the
synagogues and corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men: Amen I say to you, they have
received their reward.
16 And when you fast, be not as the hypocrites, sad. For they disfigure their faces, that
they may appear unto men to fast. Amen I say to you, they have received their reward.
22 The light of thy body is thy eye. If thy eye be single, thy whole body shall be lightsome. 23 But if thy eye be evil thy whole body shall be darksome. If then the light that is in thee, be darkness: the darkness itself how great shall it be! 24 No man can serve two masters. For either he will hate the one, and love the other: or he will sustain the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
22 The light of thy body is thy eye. If thy eye be single, thy whole body shall be lightsome. 23 But if thy eye be evil thy whole body shall be darksome.

For either he will hate the one, and love the other: or he will sustain the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
Chapter 7
5 Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam in thy own eye, and then shalt thou see to cast
out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
6 Give not that which is holy to dogs; neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest
perhaps they trample them under their feet, and turning upon you, they tear you.
11 If you then being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children: how much more will
your Father who is in heaven, give good things to them that ask him?
13 Enter ye in at the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way that leadeth
to destruction, and many there are who go in thereat. 14 How narrow is the gate, and strait
is the way that leadeth to life: and few there are that find it! 15 Beware of false
prophets, who come to you in the clothing of sheep, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16 By their fruits you shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of
thistles?
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit, shall be cut down, and shall be cast into
the fire. 20 Wherefore by their fruits you shall know them.
21 Not every one that saith to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven: but
he that doth the will of my Father who is in heaven, he shall enter into the kingdom of
heaven.
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity.
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity.
Chapter 8
10 And Jesus hearing this, marvelled; and said to them that followed him: Amen I say to
you, I have not found so great faith in Israel. 11 And I say to you that many shall come
from the east and the west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom
of heaven: 12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into the exterior darkness:
there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Chapter 9
13 Go then and learn what this meaneth, I will have mercy and not sacrifice. For I am not
come to call the just, but sinners.
Chapter 10
14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words: going forth out of that house
or city shake off the dust from your feet. 15 Amen I say to you, it shall be more tolerable
for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
21 The brother also shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the son: and the
children shall rise up against their parents, and shall put them to death. 22 And you shall
be hated by all men for my name's sake: but he that shall persevere unto the end, he shall be
saved.
26 Therefore fear them not. For nothing is covered that shall not be revealed: nor hid,
that shall not be known.
28 And fear ye not them that kill the body, and are not able to kill the soul: but rather
fear him that can destroy both soul and body in hell.
33 But he that shall deny me before men, I will also deny him before my Father who is in
heaven. 34 Do not think that I came to send peace upon earth: I came not to send peace, but
the sword. 35 For I came to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter
against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
36 And as a man's enemies shall be they of his own household. 37 He that loveth
father or mother more than me, is not worthy of me; and he that loveth son or daughter more than
me, is not worthy of me. 38 And he that taketh not up his cross, and followeth me, is not
worthy of me. 39 He that findeth his life, shall lose it: and he that shall lose his life
for me, shall find it.
Chapter 11
16 But whereunto shall I esteem this generation to be like? It is like to children sitting
in the market place. 17 Who crying to their companions say: We have piped to you, and you
have not danced: we have lamented, and you have not mourned. 18 For John came neither
eating nor drinking; and they say: He hath a devil. 19 The Son of man came eating and
drinking, and they say: Behold a man that is a glutton and a wine drinker, a friend of publicans
and sinners. And wisdom is justified by her children.
21 Woe to thee, Corozain, woe to thee, Bethsaida: for if in Tyre and Sidon had been wrought the miracles that have been wrought in you, they had long ago done penance in sackcloth and ashes. 22 But I say unto you, it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment, than for you. 23 And thou Capharnaum, shalt thou be exalted up to heaven? thou shalt go down even unto hell. For if in Sodom had been wrought the miracles that have been wrought in thee, perhaps it had remained unto this day. 24 But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.
21 Woe to thee, Corozain, woe to thee, Bethsaida: for if in Tyre and Sidon had been wrought the miracles that have been wrought in you, they had long ago done penance in sackcloth and ashes. 22 But I say unto you, it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment, than for you. 23 And thou Capharnaum, shalt thou be exalted up to heaven? thou shalt go down even unto hell. For if in Sodom had been wrought the miracles that have been wrought in thee, perhaps it had remained unto this day. 24 But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.
Chapter 12
30 He that is not with me, is against me: and he that gathereth not with me, scattereth.
31 Therefore I say to you: Every sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven men, but the blasphemy
of the Spirit shall not be forgiven. 32 And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of
man, it shall be forgiven him: but he that shall speak against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be
forgiven him, neither in this world, nor in the world to come.
34 O generation of vipers, how can you speak good things, whereas you are evil? for out of
the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
36 But I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall render an
account for it in the day of judgment. 37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by
thy words thou shalt be condemned.
39 Who answering said to them: An evil and adulterous generation seeketh a sign: and a sign
shall not be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet.
41 The men of Ninive shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they did penance at the preaching of Jonas. And behold a greater than Jonas here. 42 The queen of the south shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold a greater than Solomon here.
43 And when an unclean spirit is gone out of a man he walketh through dry places seeking rest, and findeth none. 44 Then he saith: I will return into my house from whence I came out. And coming he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished. 45 Then he goeth, and taketh with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is made worse than the first. So shall it be also to this wicked generation.

48 But he answering him that told him, said: Who is my mother, and who are my brethren?
49 And stretching forth his hand towards his disciples, he said: Behold my mother and my
brethren. 50 For whosoever shall do the will of my Father, that is in heaven, he is my
brother, and sister, and mother.
Chapter 13
10 And his disciples came and said to him: Why speakest thou to them in parables? 11
Who answered and said to them: Because to you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of
heaven: but to them it is not given. 12 For he that hath, to him shall be given, and he
shall abound: but he that hath not, from him shall be taken away that also which he hath.
13 Therefore do I speak to them in parables: because seeing they see not, and hearing they
hear not, neither do they understand.
28 And he said to them: An enemy hath done this. And the servants said to him: Wilt thou that we go and gather it up? 29 And he said: No, lest perhaps gathering up the cockle, you root up the wheat also together with it. 30 Suffer both to grow until the harvest, and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers: Gather up first the cockle, and bind it into bundles to burn, but the wheat gather ye into my barn.
41 The Son of man shall send his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all scandals, and them that work iniquity. 42 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
49 So shall it be at the end of the world. The angels shall go out, and shall separate the wicked from among the just. 50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Chapter 15
7 Hypocrites, well hath Isaias prophesied of you, saying: 8 This people honoureth me
with their lips: but their heart is far from me. 9 And in vain do they worship me, teaching
doctrines and commandments of men.
13 But he answering them, said: Every plant which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up. 14 Let them alone: they are blind, and leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both will fall into the pit.
25 But she came and adored him, saying: Lord, help me. 26 Who answering, said: It is not good to take the bread of the children, and to cast it to the dogs. 27 But she said: Yea, Lord; for the whelps also eat of the crumbs that fall from the table of their masters.
13 But he answering them, said: Every plant which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up. 14 Let them alone: they are blind, and leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both will fall into the pit.
25 But she came and adored him, saying: Lord, help me. 26 Who answering, said: It is not good to take the bread of the children, and to cast it to the dogs. 27 But she said: Yea, Lord; for the whelps also eat of the crumbs that fall from the table of their masters.
Chapter 16
2 But he answered and said to them: When it is evening, you say, It will be fair weather,
for the sky is red. 3 And in the morning: Today there will be a storm, for the sky is red
and lowering. You know then how to discern the face of the sky: and can you not know the signs of
the times? 4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign: and a sign shall not
be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet. And he left them, and went away.
6 Who said to them: Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
23 Who turning, said to Peter: Go behind me, Satan, thou art a scandal unto me: because thou savourest not the things that are of God, but the things that are of men.
6 Who said to them: Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
23 Who turning, said to Peter: Go behind me, Satan, thou art a scandal unto me: because thou savourest not the things that are of God, but the things that are of men.
Chapter 17
16 Then Jesus answered and said: O unbelieving and perverse generation, how long shall I be
with you? How long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me.
Chapter 18
6 But he that shall scandalize one of these little ones that believe in me, it were better
for him that a millstone should be hanged about his neck, and that he should be drowned in the
depth of the sea. 7 Woe to the world because of scandals. For it must needs be that
scandals come: but nevertheless woe to that man by whom the scandal cometh. 8 And if thy
hand, or thy foot scandalize thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee. It is better for thee to go
into life maimed or lame, than having two hands or two feet, to be cast into everlasting fire.
9 And if thy eye scandalize thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee. It is better for
thee having one eye to enter into life, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.
Chapter 19
8 He saith to them: Because Moses by reason of the hardness of your heart permitted you to
put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.
23 Then Jesus said to his disciples: Amen, I say to you, that a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven. 24 And again I say to you: It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven.
23 Then Jesus said to his disciples: Amen, I say to you, that a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven. 24 And again I say to you: It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Chapter 21
12 And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the
temple, and overthrew the tables of the money changers, and the chairs of them that sold doves:
13 And he saith to them: It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but
you have made it a den of thieves.
Chapter 23
2 Saying: The scribes and the Pharisees have sitten on the chair of Moses. 3 All
things therefore whatsoever they shall say to you, observe and do: but according to their works do
ye not; for they say, and do not. 4 For they bind heavy and insupportable burdens, and lay
them on men's shoulders; but with a finger of their own they will not move them. 5 And all
their works they do for to be seen of men. For they make their phylacteries broad, and enlarge
their fringes.
6 And they love the first places at feasts, and the first chairs in the synagogues,
7 And salutations in the market place, and to be called by men, Rabbi. 8 But be not
you called Rabbi. For one is your master; and all you are brethren. 9 And call none your
father upon earth; for one is your father, who is in heaven. 10 Neither be ye called
masters; for one is you master, Christ.
11 He that is the greatest among you shall be your servant. 12 And whosoever shall
exalt himself shall be humbled: and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted. 13 But
woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you shut the kingdom of heaven against men,
for you yourselves do not enter in; and those that are going in, you suffer not to enter.
14 Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: because you devour the houses of widows,
praying long prayers. For this you shall receive the greater judgment. 15 Woe to you
scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you go round about the sea and the land to make one
proselyte; and when he is made, you make him the child of hell twofold more than yourselves.
16 Woe to you blind guides, that say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing;
but he that shall swear by the gold of the temple, is a debtor. 17 Ye foolish and blind;
for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold? 18 And whosoever
shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gift that is upon it, is
a debtor. 19 Ye blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the
gift? 20 He therefore that sweareth by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things that
are upon it:
21 And whosoever shall swear by temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth in it:
22 And he that sweareth by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth
thereon. 23 Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you tithe mint, and
anise, and cummin, and have left the weightier things of the law; judgment, and mercy, and faith.
These things you ought to have done, and not to leave those undone. 24 Blind guides, who
strain out a gnat, and swallow a camel. 25 Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites;
because you make clean the outside of the cup and of the dish, but within you are full of rapine
and uncleanness.
26 Thou blind Pharisee, first make clean the inside of the cup and of the dish, that the
outside may become clean. 27 Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you are
like to whited sepulchres, which outwardly appear to men beautiful, but within are full of dead
men's bones, and of all filthiness. 28 So you also outwardly indeed appear to men just; but
inwardly you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. 29 Woe to you scribes and Pharisees,
hypocrites; that build the sepulchres of the prophets, and adorn the monuments of the just,
30 And say: If we had been in the days of our Fathers, we would not have been partakers
with them in the blood of the prophets.
31 Wherefore you are witnesses against yourselves, that you are the sons of them that
killed the prophets. 32 Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers. 33 You
serpents, generation of vipers, how will you flee from the judgment of hell? 34 Therefore
behold I send to you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them you will put to death
and crucify, and some you will scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city:
35 That upon you may come all the just blood that hath been shed upon the earth, from the
blood of Abel the just, even unto the blood of Zacharias the son of Barachias, whom you killed
between the temple and the altar.
Chapter 24
2 And he answering, said to them: Do you see all these things? Amen I say to you there
shall not be left here a stone upon a stone that shall not be destroyed.
15 When therefore you shall see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place: he that readeth let him understand.
15 When therefore you shall see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place: he that readeth let him understand.
16 Then they that are in Judea, let them flee to the mountains: 17 And he that is on
the housetop, let him not come down to take any thing out of his house: 18 And he that is
in the field, let him not go back to take his coat. 19 And woe to them that are with child,
and that give suck in those days. 20 But pray that your flight be not in the winter, or on
the sabbath.
21 For there shall be then great tribulation, such as hath not been from the beginning of
the world until now, neither shall be. 22 And unless those days had been shortened, no
flesh should be saved: but for the sake of the elect those days shall be shortened.
37 And as in the days of Noe, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, even till that day in which Noe entered into the ark, 39 And they knew not till the flood came, and took them all away; so also shall the coming of the Son of man be. 40 Then two shall be in the field: one shall be taken, and one shall be left. 41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill: one shall be taken, and one shall be left. 42 Watch ye therefore, because ye know not what hour your Lord will come. 43 But know this ye, that if the goodman of the house knew at what hour the thief would come, he would certainly watch, and would not suffer his house to be broken open. 44 Wherefore be you also ready, because at what hour you know not the Son of man will come.

Chapter 25
11 But at last come also the other virgins, saying: Lord, Lord, open to us. 12 But
he answering said: Amen I say to you, I know you not. 13 Watch ye therefore, because you
know not the day nor the hour.
30 And the unprofitable servant cast ye out into the exterior darkness. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
41 Then he shall say to them also that shall be on his left hand: Depart from me, you cursed, into everlasting fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels.

41 Then he shall say to them also that shall be on his left hand: Depart from me, you cursed, into everlasting fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels.
Chapter 26
24 The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the
Son of man shall be betrayed: it were better for him, if that man had not been born.
40 And he cometh to his disciples, and findeth them asleep, and he saith to Peter: What? Could you not watch one hour with me? 41 Watch ye, and pray that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh weak.
40 And he cometh to his disciples, and findeth them asleep, and he saith to Peter: What? Could you not watch one hour with me? 41 Watch ye, and pray that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh weak.
A RECOMMENDATION
Considering what we are reminded again through Matthew 18: 6-7 :
"But he that shall scandalize one of these little ones that believe in me, it were better for
him that a millstone should be hanged about his neck, and that he should be drowned in the depth
of the sea. 7 Woe to the world because of scandals. For it must needs be that scandals come: but
nevertheless woe to that man by whom the scandal cometh."
If we were in the shoes of the (over-two-thirds) US Bishops and Cardinals (3) who covered up the sexual abuse of a handful of priests, to the detriment of the souls of those little ones, (4) we would be looking for many different ways to offer penance and sacrifice as acts of reparation before that symbolic millstone finds its way to each individual neck. Dress rehearsals took place during the French Revolution (5) as well as in the initial Republican periods of Italy, Portugal and Spain.
A quick review of any elementary history books is highly recommended for those who have drowned their memories in honey... for the Opening Night... is just around the corner.
