Luc 7:47-48

Esta história, encontrada no Evangelho de Lucas, é profundamente gratificante e generosa. Recomendo a leitura atenta do texto em Lucas 7:36-50 para entendê-la completamente.

Lucas, médico de profissão, mais uma vez, apresenta com maestria uma história que inspira generosidade e gratidão.

A blind beggar crying out desperately by the side of the road, an immoral woman despised as dirty by polite society, a corrupt government employee hated by all – how could any of these people from society’s fringes hope to connect with a holy God? Based on insights from the book of Luke in the Africa Study Bible, follow Jesus as he bridges the gap between God and the marginalized.
