Don't expect Jesus to quit while he's ahead.

When someone has an epiphany, it's not that reality changed. The way they see that reality did. In the same way, having Jesus in our lives doesn't always mean our reality changes. It simply means we see that reality differently (and better). Today we get an \u201cEpiphany Orientation\u201d about the reception the gospel receives when it is heard by human ears. Normally when a message is rejected, it indicates some sort of failure. Because the gospel is divine revelation, however, it is guaranteed to offend us and often be rejected. This rejection, however, only demonstrates the divine nature of God\u2019s revelation and prompts the gospel to be preached in other places and among other people.
