There aren't any 'woes' in the Beatitudes. <BR/><BR/>And, here's a question: why would the Holy Spirit see to it that these words of Jesus were preserved for posterity if they were not meant for future generations? The very last verse in John indicates that there was lots of stuff that Jesus did and said that were not recorded. So why did the Holy Spirit want these particular teachings of Jesus recorded in Luke saved? <BR/><BR/>These are thorny issues aren't they Jon? Thanks for bringing them up. It's things like these that need to be discussed in the church today. <BR/>Blessings.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
