She “knosw” Him from post card pictures.
Is saynsumthin blog going to hire her Mother?
Judas knew Him, Pontius Pilate knew him.
BIG difference between knowing Him and accepting His free gift.
I’m surprised more people don’t acknowledge that Scripture (Mat 22). I don’t even hear it from the pulpits.
Think about it. Even the devil ‘knows Jesus’, does he not? Not many even know Scripture than the devil.
Therefore it’s not knowing Jesus that is key, it’s ‘Does Jesus know YOU?’. And by taking up His cross and following Him is how Jesus will know you. This is my opinion - as I stated: I hear this from nobody, even the Priests for some reason.
The enemy knows Jesus. So what?
I guess that family doesn’t know the difference between an acquaintance and a friend (and Saviour). satan ‘knows’ Jesus, too, perhaps like the mother does...
I don’t believe the famous old hymn says, ‘What an acquaintance we have in Jesus...’
I’ve probably told this story before, but I was once in a conversation with my former pastor about late term abortionist \ ELCA usher. I mentioned there was something wrong that he was comfortable going to church and that the church was comfortable with him going there. Unfortunately, I just broke the greatest sin...judging.
My pastor told me “abortion is a bad sin, but so is lusting” (I wondered if he saw me checking out the hot babe that just entered the restaurant).
That made start to wonder if the belief that all sins are equal is another form of moral relativism and this belief leads to an abortion culture or a holocaust culture like that in Germany.
Instead of being catty (which is really easy to do with a long string of seeming moral justifications, if we think this is about something other than the Lord) I am going to pray that this quickly turns serious. A bruised reed He will not break, nor a smoldering wick will He put out, until He leads justice to victory.
The question is not do you know Him but do you follow Him.
So does Satan, and he shudders.
She needs to ponder “Does Jesus know me?”. If Jesus were to say “depart, I knew you not”, would she then say “but I knew you”. A thing like that could ruin her day...something we all should ponder.
In the not so distant future, under socialized medicine, every medical worker will be forced to participate in killing or lose their jobs.
Hmmmm, I guess she doesn’t know what Jesus said about one harms the least of these little ones....
“It would be better for him if a milstone were hanged about his neck and he was cast into the sea”.
