The Dangers of God’s Favor: Part II
My Interview with Drew Marshall
this sounded like God was ringing my bell. i’d better remember it.
Very interesting.
I’m not sure what the Luke 2:52 passage has to do with the subject. The One who increased in favor with God and men was Jesus. Perhaps you could clarify?
The post is about favor and so is that text. The believer who walks in Christ experiences the same things that Jesus experienced in principle (except for His atoning work, of course). This holds true for those who are walking in Christ as it pertains for divine favor.
Great reminder.
Frank,
These two posts are vitally important to remember. Thx for the challenge and encouragment here. Blessings to you brother.
