Am reading a great book by Andy Stanley called Grace, is interesting to me that Jesus the son of God was born from a lineage that included Judas (who lied, treated his daughter in law as a prostitute and plotted against his brother Joseph), Rahab a prostitute, David who had an affair and plotted Uriah’s death and Solomon who worshipped many gods. This book highlights the bibles storylines showing that God showed grace time and time again from Genesis on. Do I/we show the grace our saviour did? Does our modern day Christianity allow us to or are we so caught up in our own rules and mandates and what makes sense to our simple minds? Am I, are we prepared to do what Jesus would?
This really struck me!
