Interesting parallels in the Bible
The Bible
is filled with parallels. These parallels teach us various lessons about the
nature of God, humanity, and the overarching themes of the Scripture. Looking
at the parallels, we realise that someone greater than “man” was involved in
putting the Bible together. It shows us that His plans for us were made since
the beginning of time and are exact down to the last detail. That is a great
comfort to us because it indicates that He is deeply involved in our everyday
lives.

Why did Jesus heal the man born blind in John 9
What was Jesus doing in and through this miracle? This miracle has multiple layers and purposes. Jesus did not only perform this miracle mainly to give the blind man sight but also to reveal his true identity to the people.

The ways of God vs the ways of man
In the Bible, we often read about stories of people trusting God even though it did not make sense at the time.
The beauty of following God even when they didn’t understand what God was doing is that each time they obeyed and trusted, God gave them a tremendous victory.
There are also examples in the Bible where a principle or teaching goes against human nature. Jesus’ and Paul’s
teachings are full of these types of principles. We also see them often in the book of wisdom, Proverbs. In our walk with God, His ways will not always make sense to us if we look at it from a carnal, natural perspective.

The importance of forgiveness
Forgiveness is something that we should extend to those who hurt us. This does not mean that you will be reconciled with the person, but we must forgive. The Bible has a lot to say about this topic and in this session Abri shares important principles about forgiveness.
