I See A Lamb - Lenny 'Smith

Описание: It is vital to understand that Jesus purposely presented himself as lamb-like: gentle, kind, compassionate, loving, patient, strong yet understanding, taking no offense, all-forgiving, all-embracing, happy. Why be so very careful? Why did he purposely distance himself from the warrior/king David? Because David was the Lion of Judah, and Jesus is the Lamb of God. And, NO, he is not both! A lion is a predator. A lamb is no threat to anyone. Jesus' lamb-like nature reveals the true nature of our Father. "He who sees me sees the Father." Jesus was trying to help people see that God does NOT want to be feared, but loved as He loves us so very much. It seems to me Jesus kind of failed to get our minds firmly turned from the very ancient fears in us to the good news that our Father loves us dearly, and that He places NO CONDITIONS on our embracing Him again, NOT EVEN "BLOOD-LETTING.! ANSELM around 1100 A.D. introduced the idea that God needed blood sacrifice from His Son to justify us and pay for our sins. That was NOT what Jesus said or did. Father places NO SUCH CONDITIONS on our reunion. Read the parable of the prodigal son again. What most people call "sins" God calls mistakes, and mistakes are what we do and they can be corrected. At least, ask God if I AM right about this. Don't just consult your own ego, please:).
