28.05.2018 REVELATION

GOSPEL READING: MARK 10:17-27

The revelation of God by Jesus is something worth reflecting. In this passage Jesus reveals two qualities of God. One is that God alone is good and no other. The second quality is that everything is possible for God. These two qualities of God are essential to understand the mind of Jesus about God.

The rich young man who came to Jesus was a religious person in the normal understanding. But he was attached to his wealth and that was a distraction for him from following God. Even religious persons can be away from God because of their attachment to wealth. God demands total surrender to him.

கடவுள் ஒருவரே நல்லவர் என்பதும் கடவுளால் எல்லாம் இயலும் என்பதும் இயேசுவின் வெளிப்பாடுகள். இவைகளை ஏற்று வாழ்பவன் பொருள்கள் மீதும் உலகு மீதும் நம்பிக்கை வைக்கமாட்டான்.
