FRIDAY- 29th  WEEK IN ORDINARY TIME –B
Gospel: Luke 12:54-59: You know how to interpret the face of the earth and sky. How is it you do not know how to interpret these times?
I Reading: Romans 7:18-25: Who will rescue me from this body doomed to death?
The Three Gross Misconceptions of Man, 12:49-59
Jesus covered two gross misconceptions of man.
1. Misconception 1: The Messiah has not yet come (v.54-57)
a. Truth 1: people discern the weather, i.e. earthly events
b. Truth 2: people do not discern the signs of times, the Messianic age
c. Truth 3: people do not discern spiritual matters
2. Misconception 2: Men have no need to make peace with God (v.58-59)
a. Truth 1: people have a bad case before God, the judge
b. Truth 2: the time is urgent-“try hard”
c. Truth 3: The surety of payment, that is judgement
Thought: The believer is to love God first and foremost then his/her family.
