Today we look at the fundamentals of the Gospel message and explore the idea's that Jesus illustrated through the parables of the lost sheep, the lost coin and the prodigal son.
God leaves the 99 sheep to save the 1 who is straying away, perhaps unintentionally.
God desperately searches for the one coin that is unknowingly lost.
God searches far and wide for the son or daughter that is willfully lost.
Once the Son, the coin and/or the lost sheep returns, God rejoices because His relationship with us is THAT personal.
