I love to look at how Jesus relates to all kinds of people because His good character and wonderful emotional health perfectly reveal God's good character and amazing emotional health.Jesus said, "If you have seen Me, you have seen the Father [God]" - John 14:9If you want to know what God, who is invisible, is like, merely look at how Jesus relates to imperfect people who fail and sin. There is no one in the entire Bible who "has it together" or is morally perfect.There are only those who ar ...
