Today we got an intense glimse into what it must have been like to follow Christ. I imagine that he was teaching constantly. I believe we learn a lot when we look at the parables that Christ taught in. We know that Christ could have been a tyrant who enforced the law but instead we saw a man who taught the theory behind the law.
Christ taught that we should be a people that understood good from evil and the best way to do that was know God the Father. Christ taught that we should know love and know what it was to love Him. Then we should show that love to others. This humbleing of ourselves was the best chance we had to show Christ to others. Of course we must know the law, but we must understand the love behind the law in order to apply it to our lives. This is why Christ used parables.
Tomorrow is Day 24, Luke 15.
