My reading exist in the book of John, yet my mind can't seem to completely fathom the scene of Jesus walking this Earth. I have always understood his role of the Son of God in human flesh, but why do people respond the way John describes?
The people in Galilee do not understand who is the true Christ yet He stands in their doorway performing miracles beyond their what their "pea" minds could imagine. This is the Savior! The living, breathing, God! As I read, I just want to yell and wake these sleeping people. But my thoughts don't stop with the townspeople.
My mind begins to examine the mistakes of the disciples. They don't really see Christ. They walk daily beside the Son of God, but they still makes fools of themselves. They still go against God's word.
My big research question...If we are striving to live a holy, pure, life without Christ on Earth, then why do those who walk with Jesus continue to fall short of living a holy, pure, life? Is it possible for us? How does this connect with God's big plan?
