Next Study Night

Filed under: NT in a Year — Rev Steve @ 12:53 pm

Our first meeting of the New test Bible Group took place this past Thursday. Six people joined in and we related their experiences of reading the NT. Some were surprised by the Jesus they met in the scriptures. He appeared “harsh.” This seem to contradict the image of “gentle Jesus meek and mild.” Still others didn’t see this. While apparently a contradiction, both are the same person. Scripture attests to both images. He spoke harshly and critically to those who wore their religion on the outside. Luke 11:37-53; Luke 49-59. And was meek and mild to those for whom he sought out. Matthew 12:20; Luke 18: 15-16. In these images we see and experience the glory of the divine. Jesus is the unique and incarnate Son of God. “O taste and see that the Lord is good,” cries the Psalmist!
If you missed the first meeting, “NO WORRIES.” Please come and join with your friends at Tansley on April 15th at 7pm. *Please note this is a change from the date of April 8th.
