Good afternoon,

After watching the Olympics or more accurately reading about the legitimizing of men beating women.
Worldwide this was watched.
People are appalled and rightly so but where did they really think this was going to end up?

I was weeping and praising God and thanking Him for creating male and female 

Genesis chapter one v 27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. 

Yet Adam & Eve sinned in the garden (Adam blamed Eve and God
The woman whom you gave me.)
(Eve blamed the snake  which is satan – Hebrew for adversary  –

Jesus called satan/lucifer/ a thief , a murderer, and a liar from the beginning of time.

How precious a soul must be 
When both God and the Devil contend for it 

but yet even as He was pronouncing judgement on them and the serpent Jesus knew He would come and die for all mankind to believe on Him.
It is where the blame game started.

Jesus is holy and so judgment needed to be pronounced.

What love!
What true Agape Love!

So we could be where He is and We can be like Him!

A Samaritan Woman Meets her Messiah and if You believe on His name He is your Messiah; Christ Jesus The King; The Messiah!
1Therefore, when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John 2(though Jesus Himself did not baptize, but His disciples), 3He left Judea and departed again to Galilee. 4But He needed to go through Samaria.
5So He came to a city of Samaria which is called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. 6Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied from His journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
7A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink.” 8For His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.
9Then the woman of Samaria said to Him, “How is it that You, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.
10Jesus answered and said to her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give Me a drink,’ you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.”
11The woman said to Him, “Sir, You have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Where then do You get that living water? 12Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, as well as his sons and his livestock?”
13Jesus answered and said to her, “Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, 14but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.”
15The woman said to Him, “Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw.”
16Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”
17The woman answered and said, “I have no husband.”
Jesus said to her, “You have well said, ‘I have no husband,’ 18for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; in that you spoke truly.”
19The woman said to Him, “Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet. 20Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where one ought to worship.”
21Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews. 23But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. 24God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
25The woman said to Him, “I know that Messiah is coming” (who is called Christ). “When He comes, He will tell us all things.”
26Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you am He.”
Jesus spoke to the woman at the well

Jesus spoke to the woman caught in adultery
While all the religious men wanted to stone her
Yet they were as guilty as her. 

Jesus spoke to the woman bleeding and healed her.

Jesus spoke to the Canaanite woman and healed her daughter and Jee sus marveled at her faith.

Jesus went regularly to Mary and Martha and Lazarus’s house.

Jesus healed the young girl – so much more – 

Women followed Him and Jesus accepted them!
They were the only one’s at the foot of the cross.

Besides beloved Apostle John
The Book of John 
A good book to read

The Bible has 66 books in it
All best sellers:)
Pointing the way to Christ
Covered by the blood of the Lamb of God

Jeus walked when:
When women were not more valuable than cattle
Where men could just say I divorce you and u were penniless
Could not even go back to their homes
Where men could divorce u for burning his supper

Where Roman men had a wife, a mistress and a concubine

Yet Jesus marveled at a Roman centurion for his faith

The Faith of the Centurion
5 When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to him, asking for help. 6 “Lord,” he said, “my servant lies at home paralyzed, suffering terribly.”
7 Jesus said to him, “Shall I come and heal him?”
8 The centurion replied, “Lord, I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed. 9 For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and that one, ‘Come,’ and he comes. I say to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
10 When Jesus heard this, he was amazed and said to those following him, “Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith. 
13 Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go! Let it be done just as you believed it would.” And his servant was healed at that moment.
Jesus healed Peter’s mother-in-law of a fever
So much more I could write of all that Jesus did but if all was recorded all the books in the world could not hold what Jesus did .
John 21:25
25 And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen.
But FastForward to the 2024 Olympics and this is the world we live in
It is like the world is determined to go back to its sinful condition of rejecting Christ Jesus who died for their sins.
