Lesson 3175

 (Lesson 3175)(09-11-20) Matthew 13:54-58

    “And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works? Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things? And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house. And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.”

    Today’s quote relates that Jesus was rejected by the people of His own hometown. Because of having known Him all of His life and even after seeing the miracles He performed, they would not believe that Jesus was the promised Messiah.~
