I travelled to Israel some 10 years ago with a church group to follow the travels of Christ in the Holy Land. I was taken by the heat and pushy beggers but what did strike me was the feminine atmosphere which made it unique. Mary Magdalene I did not meet but the light through Nazereth was hypnotic. Gathsemane was truly profound and it was with sadness and peace I sat and prayed. That on my return to England I would leave working in mental health and underwent a conversion psychologically. I've always loved Christ and his disciples but my need to keep travelling keeps me going.

According to scripture you must have sorrow about sins committed and you must love Jesus and go in the water to be Baptized and your sins will be washed away and you will no longer have demons and you will receive the Holy Spirit. See Acts 2 38. You must be Baptized by immersion in the water in the same manner that Jesus was. See Hebrews 10 22 and Acts 22 16 and you will spiritually receive your wedding garment and those who are not Baptized in the same manner that Jesus was with love for Jesus will not receive their wedding garments and will be cast into outer darkness where there will be weeping and nashing of teeth. See Matthew chapters 20 and 22.

I know it seems to us that in our humanity we would want to cry out so we want Jesus to cry out, but He was obedient unto death. He fulfilled all scripture. We need to think about the pain He endured, but He did not cry out except on the cross Eli Eli, my God my God.... That is the only problem I had.

Case with the woman caught in adultery: according the Torah, both man and woman should have been brought and stoned. If Jesus had judged her alone, it would have been an incomplete judgement. I understood that they could even have judged Jesus for twisting the law for failing to follow all of the torah. So in this sence it was a double trap. And how unexpectedly and wisely Jesus dealt with it.
@Maber014 жыл бұрын
You are right that the priest could judge Jesus for "twisting the law". More importantly, the context of the passage is the Jewish Priest are looking to accuse Jesus of something. As a result of Jesus acting like a Fork-Tongued-Devil, they could accuse Jesus of being The Satan who deceived everyone to NOT FOLLOW THE LAWS OF GOD.

There were many women travelling with Jesus, and they were bankrolling his ministry. The narrator quotes Luke 8, 1-2 but misses out Luke 8:3 "8 Soon afterward he went on through cities and villages, proclaiming and bringing the good news of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with him, 2 and also some women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary, called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out, 3 and Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod's household manager, and Susanna, and many others, who provided for them out of their means." Don't erase these other early believers who were women. Without the money provided by these women, Jesus' ministry would have been a lot harder.
