Bible Question: Was Jesus a homeowner? |
Bible Answer: No, on earth Jesus did not own a home. Matthew 8:20 - Jesus replied, "Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head." Recall that the devil tempted Jesus in this manner - offering Him the entire world,in exchange for His worship! This was entirely within his right to offer the Lord, because until the return of Christ, the earth is ruled by the "prince of this world." Since Jesus real home was in Heaven, the earth held no attraction for Him. This is an intriguing question. Would you build a mansion in a landfill when you had a home that was beyond compare elsewhere? The only attraction on this earth for the Lord was its inhabitants - US! See John 14:1-6. Thank you Lord for leaving your Heavenly home and coming to rescue us from this cesspool! |
