Luke 3 1-2 The Political and Religious World of Jesus—And You Think We’ve Got Problems!
ADVERTISEMENT
It sometimes seems like my head will explode with all the things I’m seeing in the headlines and reading on Facebook.
What’s a Christian who loves true Biblical, and more importantly, Christ-like Christianity to do?
I’ve lived most of my adult life doing my best to understand the revelation of God and what He wants us to do. I hate bogus forms of Christianity that not only keep real good from being done but sometimes keep intelligent nonbelievers and seekers from seeing the faith’s truth and beauty.
My current study spoke to me about the political and religious world in which Jesus could still live and give and save the world.
It was at the very least just as crazy as ours.
And because He was able to thrive and survive and do the good God wanted Him to, we can too! He’ll show us the way.
Hang in there everybody—or better yet, on there. Crosses of truth are sometimes hard to carry, but worth it in the end.
