God’s Unquenchable Love
“Many waters can’t quench love, neither can floods drown it. If a man would give all the wealth of his house for love, he would be utterly scorned.” (Song of Solomon 8:7 WEB)
Your sins were like many waters, but it cannot quench God’s love for you.
When the children of Israel were about to cross from the wilderness to the land of Canaan, they stood before the river Jordan. The ark of the covenant entered the river first, and the waters parted, gathering up as a heap far away over the city of Adam. This is a picture of Jesus removing our sins, even all the way back to Adam’s original sin, by taking God’s judgment for sin in His own body at the cross.
Jesus stripped Himself of His divine glory, became a man, was humiliated like a criminal, suffered excruciatingly and died a bloody death.
Jesus gave all the wealth of His house for love. He did that because He loves you.
It does not make any sense. You might call such a love ‘foolish’. That is just how much God loves you.
“A certain ruler asked him, saying, “Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” Jesus asked him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good, except one—God. You know the commandments: ‘Don’t commit adultery,’ ‘Don’t murder,’ ‘Don’t steal,’ ‘Don’t give false testimony,’ ‘Honor your father and your mother.’” He said, “I have observed all these things from my youth up.” When Jesus heard these things, he said to him, “You still lack one thing. Sell all that you have, and distribute it to the poor. You will have treasure in heaven. Come, follow me.” But when he heard these things, he became very sad, for he was very rich.” (Luke 18:18-23 WEB)
When Jesus tested the rich young ruler by asking him to sell all his possessions and give the proceeds to the poor, the man could not do it.
Jesus is the true rich forever-young ruler from Heaven who has all the best treasures. At the cross, He sold everything and gave it all to you.
He was made poor so that we might become rich. He was treated like the worst sinner so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him!
Receive Jesus’ unquenchable love for you. See the great price He paid to redeem you. Know that you are very precious to God!
It is so wonderful to see Jesus in action by reading the four gospels. When we see Jesus, we also get to know God the Father. Understand the four gospels through the lens of grace in this bundle: https://bit.ly/understandeveryparable
your honor 在 [心得] Your Honor S01E01 (雷) - 看板EAseries - 批踢踢實業坊 的推薦與評價
Showtime在今天推出，改編自以色列影集，Peter Moffat編劇，Bryan Cranston主演的迷
你劇。
(FX今晚10點同日播出)
從劇情大綱而言，其實很容易會讓人與APT＋的Defending Jacob相比較吧?
說真的，故事真的有點大同小異，只是這回故事是開宗明義就讓你知道這個受人愛戴，宛
若現代包青天的紐奧良法官Michael的兒子真的就是意外撞死黑幫老大Jimmy的獨生子Rocco
的人。
雖然.....在這樁意外裡面，Adam確實有令人同情之處。
首先，他是被嚇到了，為了弔念母親，所以他進入了一個對白人不太友善的社區，被緊緊
尾隨著他那輛破富豪的黑色休旅車展現出的惡意給嚇壞了。
其次，被惡意尾隨的他，因為壓力所以氣喘犯了，自己差點喘不過氣，為了撿吸入器而偏
離車道，才撞上對向車道上，正在試車的Rocco。
最後，他其實有用Rocco的手機打電話報警，但是....
但是，身為法官之子的他，面對自己所闖出的禍所下的決定是....棄被害人不顧逃逸。
而他的父親Michael在得知實情後，開頭還是秉公，安排好了要讓Adam在有最周全打點下
出面自首，畢竟他也知道整起意外確實情有可原。
然他卻在警局內發現被害人原來是當地最大犯罪家族的兒子，立刻轉念決定盡可能的替兒
子掩蓋過整件事。
因為靠著他多年的建樹與關係，只要沒出甚麼大岔子，他也是有能耐可隻手遮天的。
只是，從Adam自己到Michael開始為他善後的過程中，遺留下太多枝微末節，像是Adam的
吸入劑、被害人的手機、Michael用來擦拭的毛巾抹布，甚至是在湮滅證據時遭遇巡邏員警
等等，都太有可能讓悲憤到極點的Jimmy靠著這些線索找上門。
每個人都知道Jimmy的身分，而Jimmy也在受訪時發誓一定要找出肇事者算帳。
都讓Michael深知後續會有更多問題需要應付。
因此他無法像是兒子那樣，最後還能平心靜氣地觀看兩人總是在心情低落時常看的電影，
刺激1995，試著遺忘這件事。
可是、可是...Adam心情是不是也平復得太快了些???
早上，他在驚慌中又目睹Rooco的慘狀，從開始不知所措到一路上還知道裝鎮靜、遮掩，
到最後能比他爸更安心的看電影，讓人真覺得有點不可思議啦!
或許他也習慣靠爸? 從心底相信父親真能替自己掩蓋過，所以就真放下心了?
只是這對父子感覺上也不是那麼親暱吧? 不然怎會其實不住在一個屋簷下?
父親住在主屋，兒子起居都在別館，要不是這場意外，或許整天這對父子也不會打照面。
但這場意外與兩人的起心動念的決定，卻從此讓兩人成為拆不開的生命共同體，得要共同
面對接下來的連串問題。
第一集所佈下的懸念感還算不錯，能了解Michael正常情況的為人與態度，但還無法得知
Baxter家的部分到底有多恐怖到Michael直接轉念不讓Adam去自首。
不過也可以猜出Michael的這個決定恐怕是非常致命，因為原本若對方能了解Adam當時的情
況更好不到哪去，或許會有那麼一絲的轉圜可能吧?
因為或許至少Rocco的母親能因同樣身為鍾愛子女的父母滋生那麼一點同理心來。
但是決心掩過的決定看來卻更像是自尋死路就是了。
期望後面能有更多迭起高潮，畢竟這種被逼上梁山的角色是Cranston所擅長的戲路，理應
能看到精采的演出。
