ahhhg

so incredibly beautiful and simple...that...you completely miss it if you look too hard...

Jesus did not live a life, or preach a gospel of compromise; the attraction of His life to the masses was the fact that He made the invisible God visible and at the same time reflected the original blueprint of every individual. His mission was to both reveal and redeem the image and likeness of God in human form. Col.1:13-15.
The most labelled sinner in society, the prostitute and tax-collector, heard enough in His message and saw enough in His life, to feel totally identified and included in Him. In Him they saw the display of the character of their true design and make-up; they recognised the life that they were meant to live: a totally fulfilled, unselfish life of love and moral integrity.

-Francois Du Toit, Thoughts For Life

...is this the gospel how it was meant to be told? i believe...
