Understanding into Action

   Jesus put understanding into action.  Like his temptation.  He knew the Bible well enough to know to use scripture to defeat temptation, even though he didn't site its reference. (Matt 4:1-11).
   Jesus didn't keep his understanding of the holy to himself.  He put his knowledge of the holy into action by teaching multitudes what they needed to hear in parables.  He gave the Good Samaritan story  to illustrate new ideas about attitudes we should have.
  Jesus's understanding goes beyond human experience.  He walked on water and stilled the sea and we can only believe it because the Bible tells us so.
In spite of all his knowledge and understanding, he came to earth in human form so we could have a mediator who was tempted as we are, yet without sin and so we could come to the throne of grace to find mercy and grace in time of need.  (Heb 4:15-16)
