Day 13 Reflection

Today I wanted to look at the beginning of the Chapter v.1-5, Really what strikes me is that how interesting this dialogue exchange is between Jesus and those that were around him. After reading a little more about this exchange it seams that they were asking Jesus about tragic events trying to answer the age old question why do these events happen. Is it because of there sin that these people where killed or died. To be in this exchange what is interesting is how Jesus answers them when asked if they were worst sinners. "No, I tell you but unless you repent you will all like wise perish" Jesus is asked twice about two different events and twice he answers the same way. What i gather from his response Jesus is continually directing these events back to Him, back to repenting of their sin and not the sin of those you died. What is always interesting about how Jesus quite often responds to those he has interactions with is that he points us back to ourselves and our desperate need of a Savior and through that are we healed, and then we are to glorify what Jesus has done if our lives giving us eternal life.
