Tell the Truth

25:16-17
Jesus presented the ideal of God better than could any man whose origin was less spiritual.

How Mary must have talked with Jesus as a boy about her angelic visitation—how the Spirit of the Lord overshadowed her and how he was spiritual conceived! How this would have shaped his thought and understanding! He had a personal knowledge of his Father God because he never had the belief to overcome that Joseph was ever his father. For our part, we have to affirm God as our Father in the face of our material belief, but Jesus did not have the material picture to contend with. “Our Father” was his heart-felt statement of reality and his precious gift to us.
