How God see’s Us!

Embracing and Kissing?

Luke 15 found in the Gospels of the New Testament is not a chapter to be overlooked, since it is the story of salvation and a revelation of how God see’s us!

Sometimes in the Ekklesia we forget some essentials mentioned by Jesus, such as the one s in Luke 15:20-21 and the ministry of washing each others feet as maybe not literal, when they are?

This young man has squandered his inheritance and sees sense to go home, he thinks through what he must say to his father!

But his father sees him coming and is ready with love for the one who was lost, this theme is not new, we see it with Esau and Jacob love in practice!

We also see it with Absalom even though much was given to him, he chose to fail and oppose his father for the throne, that was not his to have!

Genesis 33:4, 2 Samuel 14:33, Acts 14:33.

Prostitution! Part-Two.

Tears of Faith?

It is interesting how Jesus deals with the sad woman of sexual exploitation and vulnerability, it is not the way that we humans might deal with the situation because of all the stigma that we carry?

Jesus say the love for Him in her tears and the cost of her gift to Him! This was not cheap or tatty, it was her appreciation that God really cared about her!

Much like that of Jesus washing the feet of the Disciples, we need to take a leaf from the Bible and start serving God, rather than enjoying ministry on tax freedoms and living in our panelled homes?

John 12:3,  13:12.
