October 19 Matthew 1, Luke 3 The Blood of Jesus

The genealogies of Jesus are quite revealing. Jesus has the blood line of some notable people - good and bad. So, in other words, Jesus is one of us - at least from His human perspective. He was born with every one of our proclivities to be tempted into sin just like all of His ancestors all the way to Adam. He also had every one of our frailties, every one of our emotions, etc. - Jesus is one of us.

We should be able to relate to Jesus - and He certainly to us. What a magnificent plan of God. His thoughts are not our thoughts - in this case in how best to relate Himself and His desires for us to the human race.
