This seemed like such a good picture of the true life of Jesus being obscured and covered by politics and church struggles. Praise God that He is living and that the Holy Spirit guides us in truth. If all we had to go on was history and tradition, we’d be way off course by now!

And no, I’m not talking about saying cuss words in church… Our best effort is not what the Lord wants, Exodus 20:25 If you make me an altar of stone, you shall not build it of hewn stones, for if you wield your tool on it you profane it. Deuteronomy 12:8 You are not to…
