Jesus is incredibly compassionate, loving, and caring. He healed the sick, cast out demons, opened blind eyes, and performed miracles and wonders. But at the same time, He said some things that were quite controversial. It was as though He’d intentionally stir controversy so that He might awaken us to truth. Today, we don’t realise the context from which Jesus spoke, nor the stir He caused. Perhaps in recovering these controversies, we may also realise the truth He wants to bring to us.
