"Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same things." Heb2.14 ESV
I once watched one of those extreme nature shows, where the host designed and then donned an alligator headdress and body suit, in order to study large gators up close. He actually swam up to them, interacted and filmed their responses. He was shall we say, a hard-core environmentalist and animal lover.
To what extent would we be willing to go, in order to help someone who did not necessarily want our help? Well, Jesus donned our form, walked under our sun, shared our suffering, and then suffered for our sins that He might save us from extinction. Christ was, shall we say, a hard-core philanthropist and people lover. He calls us to have the same hard-core attitude in our service to each other—to do whatever it takes to seek another’s well being. 3/13/2008 ts
Just me trying to be honest with God.
