Genesis 6

Noah did this, he did all that the Lord commanded him.

Oh may that be of me!

Matthew 4

'From that time on Jesus began to preach saying,  "Repent,  for the kingdom of heaven is at hand"'

Interesting that the first recorded preached word of Jesus is repent.

It highlights to me that any walk with God has to begin with an understanding of who one is before God and dealing with it.

Matthew 3

What a challenge. ..
'Bear fruit in keeping with repentance'

Matthew 2

Glorious fulfilment of prophecy.

I wonder how I would have felt if I was a mother in those days?

Matthew 1

You can't argue with that genealogy! Such wonderful detail.

Luke 23: 1-25

Pilate's verdict is interesting:
“You brought this man to me, accusing him of leading a revolt. I have examined him thoroughly on this point in your presence and find him innocent. 15 Herod came to the same conclusion and sent him back to us. Nothing this man has done calls for the death penalty..."

There was nothing in Jesus that deserved death which is why He was the only one who could pay the price for sin.

Luke 13

The beginning of this chapter is very interesting. From Jesus' very own lips he explains that Salvation is totally dependant on him, not the events of ones life.
