God Helps Anyone


Jesus is telling a story in Luke 4:24-30 about where Elijah was sent during famine and who God healed with leprosy. Elijah was sent not to any Israelite but to a widow in Zerapath while God healed not the many lepers in Israel at the time of Elisha but Naaman, the Syrian.

The Israelites was enraged, they could not accept what they heard. When confronted with history they could not accept the truth. When will we learn from history? Jesus was merely pointing out what happened in the history of Israel. History is telling us that God does not identify what race you are before he helps.
