God knows us

 God knows us

In the book of Hebrews we read,

“Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess.  

For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet was without sin.  Hebrews 4:14,15.

When we stand before God we can never say “you are divine and don’t understand what it is to be human. Thus you can’t judge us.”

We can’t say it because Jesus does know. 

Jesus was born to human parents. His family had to flee to Egypt to avoid being murdered by Herod. He lived a normal life. He felt the sun on his face. He felt the rain. He knew what it was to celebrate a marriage and other common events.

He also knew what it was to be tempted. He knew what it was for the ruling powers to speak out against him. And he knew what it was to be betrayed by one of his disciples. He knew what it was to be falsely accused beaten and crucified. 

So when we stand before God He can say I do understand what it is like to be human.

And the question becomes do you believe in Christ Jesus and all he did for us. The apostle Paul writing,

"But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8.

Please think about it.
