The Prodigal Son! Two.

A picture of Youth?

Sins today consequences tomorrow, it may not be for all misspent youth but for some who inherit early it is a common factor to pain later on?

Here we are shown that young man who perhaps set off out into the world with good intentions, but the riotous living and the lights of the world caught up with him and he fell into those temptations we are told about and so he ends in a place of humiliation, with that final though of returning home!

Many people today have the opportunity to turn to God, they may even be considering Him and yet they refuse for a plethora of reasons not to come home to a loving Father and a heavenly home, but remain in the dross and muck of this world?

Satan and the the Devil. Two

Job and Jesus, knew Suffering!

This comparison between two men and Satan is of great value to all believers who are suffering today, in hostile environments, bad neighbors, difficult Churches and religious persecution that involves violent attacks.

It is hard to be a follower of Jesus, it is hard to love and forgive at time those that seek you both physical and mental harm?

Job was innocent, but his friends did not comfort him but rather find ways to make him believe he had sinned. Jesus was insulted and attempts to trap Him with words was a daily toll, both men suffered pain and rejection but both made it through.

They show to us a way and an understanding more so Jesus of all that we have gone through, He too did for us. Job was rewarded for his faith with prosperity, Jesus with sitting on his Fathers throne and we who press on and win the crown Salvation Eternal!
