Holy Aliens!

Lev 19:32-20:8         9/7/2017

It is God that makes you holy. Not the other way round

Zacchaeus went out to see Jesus. He didn’t think he wanted anything. He didn’t think Jesus had anything he needed. He was just curious. His curiosity put him in the way. Jesus met him.

We don’t control God. We can’t compel God to give us gifts, or to visit us, or even to make us holy. But we can put ourselves in His way.

“I am” says: You shall love the alien as yourself.

That’s curious. This is the old testament.

So go out. Allow a virtuous curiosity to rule you.

Love the alien as yourself. Even here. Even now. Make no distinction.

Maybe this will put you in God’s way. Maybe you’ll encounter Jesus. Maybe He will make you holy.
