Luk 15:12-13 And the younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me the share of property that is coming to me.' And he divided his property between them. Not many days later, the younger son gathered all he had and took a journey into a far country, and there he squandered his property in reckless living.
The rebel, the villain, the bad guy in the parable right now, it's the younger son right?
He had publically humiliated his father, he had travelled into a gentile land, he had a small fortune in wasteful living.... in the eyes of the pharisees he was beyond redemption. Before Sunday night write a short paragraph that would illustrate what this son would look like in our culture. He would have been considered the worst of the worst, what would someone have to do to look like the worst of the worst to us?
