Today in Luke 15:1-7 Jesus start off with the parable of the 99 sheep to try and explain to the "Religious types" How God has come to recover those who are separated from Him! Due to their lack of understanding farm life Jesus switches to a parable He knows will speak to them concerning the 10 pieces of silver, save one which was lost in Luke 15:8-10. Even though they could understand money more than livestock they still missed the point (mainly because they chose not to understand!), so Jesus nails them with the "Prodigal Parable" that will finish our time together today.
