1 | Should we put right our wrongs? | Luke 19:8 | quickquestion | 152097 | ||
Hi, thanks - that reply was very helpful. But I don't know what to make of this verse. It sometimes makes me think there is a need to set right what wrongs you've done. Or you could say Zacchaeus wasn't feeling guilty but did it out of love. Either way, is there a need to set right wrongs, even though God has removed your guilt? | ||||||
2 | Should we put right our wrongs? | Luke 19:8 | JCrichton | 152142 | ||
Hi! Zacchaeus was acting out of a realization that he mattered to Christ... that Christ saw him beyond the limitations of man... Zacchaeus feeling of freedom caused his spirit to find God's Commandment in himself... he quickly realized that his eternal wealth was more important than his temporal wealth... and as a sign of conviction he promptly offered to provide restitution for those whom he had transgressed against... Compare Zacchaeus (a self-confessed sinner) reactions to the wealthy young man (who viewed himself so very close to perfection) who had to think over his decision to follow Jesus. (Matthew 9:16-26) God Bless! Angel |
