    Jesus told this parable in answer to a lawyer on how eternal life could be gained - perfect obedience to the law of love - and when obtained how it is demonstrated.

    Jesus once told a story - the Good Samaritan - which has been a favourite ever since. It’s a charming, human-interest story, but at the same time it carries a sharp message. All of us are guilty of committing many types of sin. There are sins of omission - things we don’t do which we should, and ...read more
