Questions Jesus Asked – Part 5. Trying to find worth from our own success is a wearisome pursuit. Yet we all do it. The religious leaders Jesus faced were no different. Their worth was threatened by Jesus’ wisdom and growing popularity. Controlled by jealousy, they employ a sinister plan to trap Jesus. Perceiving their wickedness, Jesus does not argue. Instead, He asks a question that renders the Pharisees speechless. Jesus reminds them they are created in the image of God (Imago Dei) and therefore have intrinsic worth. You too will find your worth as you enjoy this profound discussion on: The Questions Jesus Asked.

“For thus says the Lord GOD: “Indeed I Myself will search for My sheep and seek them out. As a shepherd seeks out his flock on the day he is among his scattered sheep, so will I seek out My sheep and deliver them from all the places where they were scattered on a cloudy and dark day. And I will bring them out from the peoples (nations) and gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land; I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, in the valleys, and in all the inhabited places of the country. I will feed them in good pasture, and their fold shall be on the high mountains of Israel. There they shall lie down in a good fold and feed in rich pasture on the mountains of Israel. I will feed My flock, and I will make them lie down,” says the Lord GOD. “I will seek what was lost and bring back what was driven away, (I will) bind up the broken and strengthen what was sick; but I will destroy the fat and the strong, and feed them in judgment.”
