I don't know about
you but there are things that I read in the Bible that just leave me wondering,
what the heck God is even talking about here?
And as I have mentioned before, I think God throws a few of these things
in here just to see if we are really paying attention to what we are
reading? :)
Here is an example.
Luke 7:33-35(NKJV)
For John the Baptist
came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a
demon.’
The Son of Man has
come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look, a glutton and a winebibber, a
friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
But wisdom is justified by all
her children.”
What? Wisdom is justified by all her children?
Jesus has just
detailed the hypocrisy of His critics.
They criticized John for one thing and then criticized Jesus for doing
the exact opposite. Kind of a damned if
you do and damned if you don't situation.
But then Jesus
throws in the kicker at the end about "wisdom is justified by all her
children". Now in the context of
what Jesus was just talking about, that comment makes no sense to me what so
ever.
Oh well. Maybe the Holy Spirit will give me some
revelation knowledge regarding that verse someday. I like the way God works the revelations from
the Holy Spirit. Basically God puts us
all on a need to know basis. As we need
to know things, He has the Holy Spirit reveal them to us.
Pretty cool!!!
