Samaritans - what do we do? John 4:1-9

Good morning everyone! God is good all the time, all the time God is good. TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!
   Did you know that Jesus, had he lived today, would have been labeled a trouble maker?  A hippy? A demonstrator? AND, homeland security would probably have a dossier on Jesus.  Why?
    WHY?  Because He went places He was not supposed to; He talked to people He should not talke to; He stayed at peoples homes where no respectable person would stay. WHAT IS WRONG WITH JESUS?  DOESN'T HE KNOW THE RULES?!?!
    Oh, yes, Jesus knows the rules, He helped write them.  What he did not follow were all the rules man set forth, thinking this is good.  In John 4, verses 1-9 you will find there was rising opposition to Jesus. Why? Well, He was doing things the Pharisees felt He should not do. If you will, click on the link, John 4:1-6.   Jesus was going from Judea to Galilee and had to pass through a central territory called Samaria.  Most Jews avoided this territory because in earlier times the Assyrians captured this land, some Jews were deported here and they intermarried with the foreigners.  The pure Jews hated the mixed breed called Samaritans, they felt these Jews had betrayed their people, the pure Jews.
   Jesus was tired and stopped at Jacob's well.  Twice a day women would come to draw water from the well, usually morning and evening.  Well......John 4:7-9 a woman came to the well at noon.  Why? Probably to avoid meeting people as her reputation was not of the greatest.  She was a Samaritan, known to be living in sin, and was in a public place.
    No respectable Jewish man would talk to a woman under these circumstances, but JESUS DID!  The Good News here is: for every person, no matter race, social position or past sins - we must be prepared to share this Good News at any time and in any place.  
   JESUS CROSSED ALL BARRIERS TO SHARE THE GOOD NEWS, AND WE WHO FOLLOW HIM MUST DO NO LESS.  Now, my friend, go, Go, GO and share the Good News of Jesus Christ, Lord and Saviour.  Thank you for reading. Love you all.

In Christ's Love and Grace
