together from divided sides, even enmity, has laid themselves at the foot of
the cross. ---They have washed each other’s feet. Now they are
going to sit down all together at the Lord’s Supper. ---The Owner’s Supper for cats has similar actions. ---Every meal about 16 cats from the neighborhood,
four mothers with their siplings, come to my house to eat supper. ---The baby cats are scared and run away by my
approach with the food. ---It was well prepared for them by the big Cat
Cook, myself in their microwave and from their refrigerator. ---They know everything they like is there plus
surprises. ---There is an action that all cats do coming
together. They kiss each other by bumping the heads against each other. ---Mothers bump their heads against each other and
their brothers. ---The Tom cat, boss cat or king cat is also there. ---He demands kissing from all except the sons who are now his rival for they are big cats themselves. ---Enemies. The father normally bites them with
enmity that the hair come out in large quantities. There is a lot of screaming
when this happens. ---There is nothing the Owner can do because it is
cat-laws. ---The law is that when mothers have babies the sons
need to find other yards to eat because the babies need to eat the crumbs of
the mothers. ---So sons are no longer welcome. ---But….did you see I say but? ---But when it is Supper time, the Owner’s Supper =
Lord’s Supper for us Christians, there is not fighting. ---They bump heads of reconciliation to each other,
lay aside old wars, kiss each other and when I put the food out, they eat
together. ---Father and son eat together. Then you then me
then you then me then you then me. That is how they eat! ---When they eat, they do not think of fighting or
war. ---I told this phenomenon before, but again here
because Christ giving His body for us and His blood has brought those who were
in enmity and estranged closer to each other and to Him. ---It has to be to Him. There is no other way. If it
is not, it is fake. ---There is a second reason the King Cat does not
fight at the meal. The babies. They will get a wrong impression of him.
Afterall, he is the model for them. ---When a baby and the King Cat eat together, he
follows the cat-rule of no fighting and no partisanship during eating. But his
baby cat does not. He growls at the King Cat saying “get away you big mouth,
this is mine”. ---And the King Cat does. He walks away. There must
be peace in the Valley when the Owner-meal is shared. ---This is our lesson today by Paul in Ephesians. ---Reconciliation brings everyone at the foot of the
cross on the same level. But, renovation of everyone is also necessary and
Ephesians 2:9-10 spells that out very clear. ---We are to walk in the shadow of the cross the way
Jesus lived and talked and walked (Ephesians 2:10). ---Are we to accommodate the pulpit to the world or
the world to the pulpit? ---Is your pastor changing the gospel to lure evil
closer in the hope they will change? Will they? No. Never. ---You need to tell your pastor, that it will not
work. One cannot compromise the settings of the Bible. It is possible to change
the will and behavior of humans. So that should change to conform to the norms
of the Bible. Nice. Correct?
