The Revelation of God in Human Suffering
by Wayne E. Oates The chapters in this book are based on sermons
delivered by Dr. Wayne Oates, each reflecting on the revelation of God in and
through the context of a different aspect or type of human suffering. Jesus' ministry was addressed to suffering people: it was the sick, in body or mind,
who needed him as their physician. Over and over again he stressed this aspect
of his mission. By pointing to his works of healing he implied to John that he
was indeed the Anointed One. When he sent out his disciples, it was specifically
to cure the sick and the spirit-possessed. When he delivered the parable of the
judging shepherd, he taught that people would be rated according to how they had or
had not ministered in practical and physical ways to their suffering fellow human
beings. |
