2 | turn your back on parent that left you. | 1 Tim 5:4 | JCrichton | 127724 | ||
Hi, jmsyas! Unfortunately, Christians suffer the ole catch 22 or is it behind the eight ball... Jesus commands us to be different... not just figuratively but in literal obedience to Him (Matthew 5:21-26, 38-42 and 43-48). This would definetely apply to parents... Now, notice that He did not command us to be someone's floor mat--just that we behave towards others in the service and obedience of God. Jesus also cautioned about assisting the needy not the greedy (Luke 14:12-14); as Christians,we have an obligation to help, within our means, those who are in need of assistance--even if they were, at one time, our enemies... who is to know that we, through humble obedience to Christ, would not bring to Christ those wretched people who have been living without God? How can we let pride and vengeance grieve the Holy Spirit? (Ephesians 4:30) Further, if we do not forgive those who have caused us harm (trespassed against us), how can we ask the Father to forgive our trespass against Him? (Matthew 6:9-15) God Bless! Angel |
