1st Bad News About Jesus Lk2:34 s4e29

Up to this moment, all the contemporary news about Jesus has been rainbows and puppies.  Then Simeon gives the 1st BAD NEWS about Jesus:  He will be opposed and will be revealing the thoughts of everybody.  It won't be pretty. (that's why a rescue mission was called for in the first place). 

Here's the super bad news for today:  One of those people who's heart and soul is exposed is YOU.  And that is where the trouble starts.  You too can oppose him in your soul, even if you are a believer; even if you are a devout person.

And there are consequences. Some Fall.  Some Rise.  God raised us up with him. 

Lord, what is there in my thoughts that needs to be revealed and agreed to and repented of and to be sorry for and not to oppose You over?  Thank you for listening and doing this hard work in your soul.   Retweet this.
