What if Jesus didn’t just give spiritual advice—but declared a revolution that would upend the world’s political, social, and economic systems?
In this powerful new episode of What the Bible Actually Says, Dr Tyson Putthoff takes us to a Galilean hillside in 28 AD, where Jesus doesn’t quietly preach “good behavior”—he publicly announces the founding manifesto of a new Empire. Against the backdrop of Roman oppression, Temple corruption, and a world obsessed with wealth, power, and domination, Jesus flips the script—declaring blessings on the poor, the meek, the merciful, and the peacemakers.
This is not a sermon. It’s a Constitution—and Imperial Constitution for those who follow Jesus to live out.
It’s not advice for personal spirituality. It’s a call to allegiance to a counter-kingdom, an Empire not of these world but very much intended to be enacted in this world, even today.
It’s not a soft retreat from politics. It’s a bold, public confrontation with the kingdoms of this world.
If you’ve ever wondered what it really means to follow Jesus—not just as a belief, but as a revolutionary way of life—this is the episode for you.
