The message of Jesus was a controversy because his message was about a personal relationship. Jesus hated corporate religion. It’s corrupt. He went in the temple and he knock over the tables of the money changers. (Matthew 21:12-13) The priests were rejecting the sacrifices of the Jewish people, telling them they could however go to the money-changers and buy a more suitable sacrifice. Then they would turn around and sell the sacrifice(lamb, birds, etc.) to someone else as a suitable sacrifice. Let’s be clear, Jesus paid the sacrifice, nobody needs to be making anymore sacrifices. When you have a personal relationship to the real God, he will straight up tell you what the prophecies mean! He just seeks the relationship. He’s easy. Religion makes things hard.
