I find it
interesting how many people have this vision in their head of Kumbaya
Jesus. That He is all loving, accepting
of everything, holding hands while we sing around the campfire Jesus.
And yet we find examples like this. Not
only did Jesus get right in their face, he was on offense. He wasn't responding to some trap question
that the scholars had asked. Jesus hit
them with the question first. He put
them on the spot!
Luke 14:1-6(NKJV)
Now it happened, as He went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees to eat bread on the Sabbath, that they watched Him closely.
And behold, there was a certain man before Him who had dropsy.
And Jesus, answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”
But they kept silent. And He took him and healed him, and let him go.
Then He answered them, saying, “Which of you, having a donkey or an ox that has fallen into a pit, will not immediately pull him out on the Sabbath day?”
And they could not answer Him regarding these things.
I like that!
