Jesus must have thought this was important as he had told his disciples directly what the ministry of Jesus looks like. While healing and casting out demons are seen as Jesus doing the miraculous, Jesus is revealing that the miracle of taking care of those in need is just as great of miracle. Why? Just like we, in our own power cannot do any of the things that deal with healing and spiritual warfare, human nature is SO flawed that what would be the greatest miracle would be if people simply cared for all people!
From worship to packing backpacks to listening to the elk in Benezette — another busy week at Fox Street!
A busy, busy week at Fox Street Church of God1
Jesus is the only answer to the fallen behaviors of humanity. Jesus’ prayer for his disciples was for his Father to help them overcome themselves and their culture. Love God, love people, love yourself. Combat the human nature of hate and division!
Ramping up for fall activities!
So, hate can be like cancer. Undiagnosed or unrecognized, a malignant tumor can grow little fingers that spreads to other parts. If you don’t catch it in time, it can lead to death. Hate is like cancer metastasizing. Insomuch, hate leads to the scandal of libel, slander, and gossip. Then that cancerous cell has a bunch of buddies, just like him, ready to spread and make all around them unhealthy.
Preparing for a busy September!
John 15:13 is often associated by being cherry picked and used as ultimately being Jesus’ death on the cross, and rightly so. Jesus did show his love for all people by his atoning sacrifice. That’s “Salvation 101” if you were to have had a class about it. But Jesus’ conversation goes far deeper than just that!
