So, the women of her time were basically forced by society and by the law into marrying simply for survival. Then, for whatever reason, the husband could cast her aside and her only hope then was to be picked up by another man. She was cast off and left to the mercy of men who did not value her except as an object of property to be owned and used. Sadly, wives could be treated horrendously by their husbands, beaten or killed and the law completely supported the man’s actions.
The Father in heaven mourned for the plight of His daughters and asked, “Who will help My daughters? Who will be their voice? Who will offer them another way?”
Jesus.
And so He did.
Jesus was never tempted to live His life according to the world’s standards, for His goal was to redeem mankind. He redeemed us through the cross as well as through the examples He showed us in His own life. He lived His life to reveal the mindset of heaven to Earth. His hope was that we as His Bride would eventually learn these principles as well and manifest them through the way we treat each other.
We can’t pick and choose which principles we’d like to live by. No, if we want to be His disciples and represent His kingdom, we must abide by the laws of heaven, which are faith, hope and love: Faith to live a life that would transform the lives of others; Hope in the cross of Christ that separates light and darkness; and the Love of a very merciful Father who wants to draw us into Himself and make us His own. {eoa}
