Bible Study: The prodigal God

We are on study number 4 - The Elder Brother. This study corresponds to chapter 4 in the book if you are reading it.

So there are two kinds of lostness. That's the reason Jesus put the elder brother in the parable. You can escape God as much through morality and religion as you can escape God through immorality and irreligion. There are a lot of people; there are a lot of Christians with an elder brother type of heart. If in your heart of hearts, you say "I try very hard, I try to be obedient, I go to church, I pray, I try to serve Jesus... therefore God you owe it to me to answer my prayers, to give me a relatively good life and to take me to heaven when I die".
If that's the language of you heart then Jesus is your model, Jesus is your example, and Jesus is your boss but He is NOT your Saviour.

We are meeting at Marge's house. Looking forward to seeing you all there!
