Jesus Offended Many...

Jesus offended many; His own home folk were the first to be offended. When He preached in the synagogue they were initially astonished by Him but ultimately offended at Him.
-- Oswald Chambers

So they took offense at Him.
-- Matthew 13:57a (GWT)

The Pharisees were offended at Jesus because His teaching showed up the hollow emptiness of their profession.

"He is despised and rejected of men ..."
-- Isaiah 53:3

Lord forbid that I should even take offence at You.

Your Sins Have Deprived You!

Your sins have deprived you of My bounty.
-- From Jeremiah 5:25 (NET)

Lord forbid that we would choose to embrace our sinful rebellion and in so doing forfeit Your holy blessings. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

"My sin not in part, but the whole...
is nailed to the cross and I bear it no more!
Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord! O, my soul!"

Know My Motives, Mind, Mysteries!

Holy Spirit, spiritually search, yes, scrutinize my soul.
Know my motives. Please, purify my heart with Your Holiness.
Know my mind. Let my thoughts become one with the Mind of Christ.
Know my mysteries. Lord forbid that some deep, dark mystery to me and in me would cause You misery.

(23) Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my thoughts.
(24) Point out anything in me that offends you,
and lead me along the path of everlasting life.
-- Psalm 139:23-24 (NLT)

IF MY PEOPLE... WILL? I WILL! God's Promise in 2 Chron. 7:14.
