MY Scripture Today 2012.1.18 Wednesday
------------------------
The Text: Mark 3:1-6.
------------------------
Jesus entered the synagogue. There was a man there who had a withered hand.
They watched him closely to see if he would cure him on the sabbath so that they might accuse him.
He said to the man with the withered hand, "Come up here before us."
Then he said to them, "Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath rather than to do evil, to save life rather than to destroy it?" But they remained silent.
Looking around at them with anger and grieved at their hardness of heart, he said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." He stretched it out and his hand was restored.
The Pharisees went out and immediately took counsel with the Herodians against him to put him to death.

My Reading Notes

This can explain many things. One is the law. The other is the heart. Due to the hardness of their heart, they had insisted the law.
Should one save life against the law?
It needs a higher level of viewpoints to see that.

Is it a fairy tale?
My Sunday Scripture 2012.1.1.
------------------------
The Text: Luke 2:16-21.
------------------------
So they went in haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the infant lying in the manger.
When they saw this, they made known the message that had been told them about this child.
All who heard it were amazed by what had been told them by the shepherds.
And Mary kept all these things, reflecting on them in her heart.
Then the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, just as it had been told to them.
When eight days were completed for his circumcision, he was named Jesus, the name given him by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
------------------
My Reading Notes:
------------------
Is it a fairy tale or true story? It is the most difficult part for us believers.
I believe in Jesus. But this story is so fairy like, I cannot keep thinking to myself, I prefer to accept its inner meaning rather then the story itself.
In deed, there was a man named Jesus born on earth somewhere, sometime, bringing to us the messages from God.......
