The idea they intended to make Jesus king by force is a reflection of our nature, when someone provides for us we tend to want to put them in charge and sit back and collect what they give us, fish or whatever, instead of doing the work ourselves.

John 3:16 is a very good verse to remind us of the why, but the details make the difference. We learn of how the Father and Son work together, of the heart of Jesus, and the love of God. John 3:16 fits this over stimulated world better than this: “But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name” (John 20:31 NIV). This verse makes us ask what was written down. 3:16 is an awesome verse, it has been isolated by us so much that we get this Gospel in a nutshell mentality from it. This short neat easy to digest message misses the passion. John did not leave the passion out, we leave out verses 17 through 21. I will not leave out the heart of Jesus when sharing

    “And now you have an extraordinary opportunity, a day wherein Christ has thrown the door of mercy wide open, and stands in calling and crying with a loud voice to poor sinners; a day wherein many are flocking to him, and pressing into the kingdom of God.” The imagery here is very intense. A door is visualized being thrown open and many plunging for it. This certainly shows the serious need we have for mercy, reiterating my earlier point of how lowly we, as humans, are. “Therefore, let everyone that is out of Christ now awake and fly from the wrath to come.
