Jesus came to raise up the oppressed, to give sight to the blind, to bring glad tidings to the poor, to proclaim liberty to captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, and to proclaim a year acceptable to the Lord. For this mission God empowered him with holy spirit. The living word and holy spirit together accomplished the mission of salvation.
Jesus himself came weak and poor,the son of carpenter. He himself took the place of sinners, the weak ones and oppressed ones to free them and bring light of truth to the world darkened by sin.
He transformed the cross of curse to cross of salvation. He raised the women,.children,. gentiles, needy.
The calling of apostles, levi, Mary magdalene,the blind man, paralytic, those rejected and left alone all shows the clear mission of Jesus .
The oppressed ones were women,children and gentiles. He raised women through mother Mary, Mary magdalene..and let the children come to him for such as those is the kingdom of God.
Jesus answered, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick; 32 I have come to call not the righteous but sinners to repentance.”
Only the humble, lowly and simple were able to get the word revealed and they accepted Christ and believed in him. The proud and scholars couldn't accept Christ or his word of wisdom,their hearts were hardened by their selfish desires. They couldn't accept or recognise Christ because they focused more on his human flesh form.
(2corinthians 4:4)
God protect and decorates the weak organs more than the strong ones. The strong ones cannot push out the weak or pain them because without them,the body of Christ will not be complete. All are his part of body if one is in pain ,all others will get the effect. Without our brothers we cannot be complete in Christ.
Indeed, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are all the more necessary,
and those parts of the body that we consider less honourable we surround with greater honor, and our less presentable parts are treated with greater propriety, whereas our more presentable parts do not need this. But God has so constructed the body as to give greater honor to a part that is without it,
so that there may be no division in the body,
but that the parts may have the same concern for one another. If one part suffers, all the parts suffer with it; if one part is honored, all the parts share its joy.-1 Corinthians 12: 12-30
In Jesus we have too received the holy spirit from Father in heaven entrusted with the same mission..to empty ourselves and raise up the weak , rejected and blind ones and to free the bonded ones by the light of Christ-the living word-the good news.
Jesus Christ purified himself by word and emptied himself for salvation of many surrendering himself in obedience to father..let us too.
Let us conquer the evil with good(Jesus).
Let us receive God's testimony rather than human..Believe in Jesus,the living word and this is eternal life.
9 If we receive human testimony, the testimony of God is greater; for this is the testimony of God that he has testified to his Son. 10 Those who believe in the Son of God have the testimony in their hearts. Those who do not believe in God[c] have made him a liar by not believing in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son. 11 And this is the testimony: God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son(1 John5:9-12)
Do whatever Jesus tells you. No matter the world hates you because you stand for truth or proclaim truth Jesus - the living word. Stay closer to Jesus and live in spirit conquering the flesh.wait for the right time for God in your life.
(Psalms 119 : 95)
Philippians 4:6-9
