Jesus knew what it felt like to live with the weight of dishonor. Much of His community knew the peculiar circumstances surrounding His conception and they weren’t so sure the Holy Spirit was involved. Whether it’s based in fact or fiction, there are many among us who bear the weight of a bad reputation. As Pastor Ray reminds us in today’s message, God welcomes all of us with open arms. When we are redeemed through the blood of Jesus, He only sees the Holiness of Christ when He looks at us.
