Hebrews 2:18 … That he Himself was tested (11/05/16)
“Because he himself was tested by what he suffered, he is able to help those who are being similarly tested.” ~ unknown (Hebrews 2:18)
Again, this verses reflects two Truths often ignored by most Christians – first, that Jesus was a human being just like all his followers (both those contemporary and those more modern-day), meaning that anyone & everyone can choose to live just as magnificently as he did (see John 12:44-47) — and second, that our salvation comes from within, not from “above”; that all we must do to transcend times of trial or turmoil is purposefully set aside our fears long enough to enliven The Way of Christ – long enough to actively Care for another instead of mentally fret for self.
