"Be wary of the man who urges an action in which he himself incurs no risk."
- Lucius Annaeus Seneca - Philosopher

Jesus was keenly aware of the depravity of man. John 2:23-25 tells us that,"While
Jesus was in Jerusalem at the Passover f
estival, many people believed
in Him because they saw the miracles that He performed. Jesus,
however, was wary of these believers. He understood people and didn’t
need anyone to tell Him about human nature. He knew what people were
really like. (GWT) Other translations say He did not entrust himself to them, for He knew what was in man. Jesus knew that the same ones who shouted 'Hosanna!' would soon cry out 'Crucify Him!' We as African-Americans and as Believers have to grasp the carnal and at times corrupt nature of this world. Jesus showed us that there is a difference between being afraid and being aware.
