Below is the very first note I wrote down when I read the Bible in its entirety – (from the Tony Evans Bible Commentary). This one is from the book of Luke. I think dealing with Jesus on a personal level would be most interesting. The things that ail us here on Earth are temporary to Jesus which might be the answer as to why he is coming from a completely different place than what we spend most of our day on. I guess Jesus sees this life we live as a “temporary condition” no matter how long we may be here?

Luke 5:20
“The men had brought their friend for physical restoration. Jesus knew he needed spiritual restoration. So he said to him, friend, your sins are forgiven. Forgiveness came first. Getting right with God takes priority over getting your circumstances right.”
