In recent days the wisdom of the wise seems to be failing. Those who we once assumed to be ‘in the know’ appear to have known less than we thought. Even when we know everything that we think we can know, there remains an inscrutability about the human heart that eludes the processes of our faculty for reason. In a cut-through move, the gospel offers the way of salvation that is beyond reason (one might say it is un-reason-able)! It turns the wisdom of the world on its head and calls us to follow Jesus in the way of the cross… a most unreasonable calling indeed! The salvation Jesus offers does not depend on your intellect or how you perceive your moral ‘rightness’. It simply invites you to put your trust in and follow him.
