From Johnathan's Blog: Jesus replied, “you are both the beloved children of my Father, reconciled in my life, death, resurrection, and ascension – and all the life of heaven belongs to you and him together.”
So much in this world and even in Christendom is backwards and twisted, isn't it? We compare, we judge in the sense of thinking we know what is "worthy" of acceptance by God, and we sure get it messed up. To think that all of us are reconciled, and God gives His life to all of us together - Lazarus, the Rich Man, the Older Brother...and us, and I believe all of us will get to the place where we see that "everything about God seems to be the exact opposite of what I thought" and will let God untwist our minds in areas where we are thinking the opposite of what God is really like and and let Him show us His true nature and ways of loving and accepting us.
