What Jesus was about

 

I guess I tend to associate the gospel with humanity relative to how people are acting more like "kingdom people," regardless of their religious affiliation or non-affiliation. It seems to me that Christ wasn't so fixated on whether other people loved him or not (though this was certainly mentioned, but not so much as a prerequisite of acceptance

into what he was about). I think Jesus identified with those who were simply what he was about himself (making his god's world a better place), not so much, if at all, dependent upon whether someone loved and devoted themselves to him.
