In the vein of "practice what you preach", what follows are a few examples in the bible of jesus' own family values. | Conservative politicians must get their sound bytes concerning a return to "family values" from some other book. (Hopefully)
Jesus' purpose on earth was to break up families- Matt 10:34-35, Luke 12:51-53
He taught people to hate their families in order to get into heaven- Luke 14:26 NOTE:
He refuses to acknowledge his own family- Matt 12:46-50, Mark 3:32-35 Gee, everybody else thinks she's such a saint...
He treated his mother with contempt- John 2:4
He encouraged people to desert their families- Matt 19:29, Mark 10:29, Luke 18:28-30 |
