Learning about Immanuel Saint Athanasius Lutheran Church

    • キリスト教

Disciples are learners. So it was with the twelve. So it is with us. They were not disciples, and we are not disciples, because of what we know, but rather because we need to learn. And grow. And we have much to learn. The disciples were learning, who Jesus was. Teacher, healer, cleanser. And next: forgiver! Did they have faith? Of course they had faith! They had faith in God, and they had faith in Jesus. But they were learning to bring those two together. To have faith in Jesus as God. God in the flesh, come into His creation, to save it. To save them. To save us. To save all. Which we, too, are still learning.
