GOSPEL READING: LUKE 9:43-45
People were amazed at the teaching and the deeds of Jesus. They recognized in the activities of Jesus the majesty of God. God was present in Jesus and God was revealed by Jesus and the people also recognized God in Jesus.
Jesus taught the disciples about the messiah who should suffer and die. This was not acceptable to the people. According to their understanding, the God-man should not suffer. This was a strange teaching. Suffering and God would not go together in their understanding.
‘துன்பப்படும் மெசியா’ மக்களால் ஏற்றுக்கொள்ள முடியாத ஒரு தகவல். இறைமகனும் துன்பமும் மக்களுக்கு முறன்பாடானவைகள் ஆனால் இறைவனின் திருவுளம் அதுவே.
