I want to know what kind of a person he was...
people dispute things... like when he called Herod a Fox... was that an insult or a culturally acceptable term for a royalty? I guess mike's mentor doesn't think Jesus would ever insult anyone... and i love how mike called Jesus a prince of meekness...
but i want to understand what he meant then...
he insults the pharisees and the lawyers all the time.. it even uses that word in my bible...
but idk... i feel like because i've been indoctrinated with this least of these, last shall be first things... it becomes cyclical.... suddenly everyone sorta seems like they are first because they are all just so low. Would Jesus rebuke the pharisees so much if he did not love them? or maybe he is just maintaining the purity of his message by using their hypocrisy as a sounding board.
but i think its his love for them.
How did he sound when he spoke these words that I read in scripture...
In Nazareth the people loved him at first and when they expressed it he insulted them so incredibly that they turned and wanted to hurl him off a cliff....
It makes me recall what Mike said the other night...
am i alright with the Jesus that the Bible presents?
This prince of peace that also announces he has not come to bring peace at all but division amongst households!?
Its all so insane.
I love it because I know God's character some from my own experiences but its just interesting to see the strange wisdom that is squeezed out through the compounding of two very different concepts that we should assume contradict each other...
idk what i'm saying anymore...
i've been doing homework for 7 hours... and classes all day... sighhhhh
sleeeeeeep i want you.
