Here's what I do not believe that publicly means.
Because a lot of people will take this scripture
and try to use it to justify what is known
as street preaching, and what they mean by this
is basically yelling at no one in particular
on a street corner, okay?
Here's the problem with this approach, okay?
First of all, it's not biblical.
People will try to claim it's biblical,
they'll try to take verses like this and so forth,
but literally, the Bible specifically says of Jesus Christ,
and you'll hear people say all the time,
"Jesus was a street preacher."
This is false.
The Bible literally says,
"His voice shall not be heard in the streets."
So how's he a street preacher if it literally says,
"He shall not strive nor cry,
"neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets.
"A bruised reed shall not break,
"and smoking flax shall he not quench,
"till he send forth judgment unto victory,
"and in his name shall the Gentiles trust."
Please explain to me how Jesus is a street preacher
if his voice is not heard in the streets,
if no man is hearing his voice in the streets.
Jesus Christ is consistently preaching to an audience
100% of the time that he's preaching.
