Romans 3
Is it better to be Jew or a Gentile?

A number of time we ask the similiar question and yet find a unfavourable answer. It is better to be a Jew because they are God chosen people. The Gentiles are not subjected to the law. But depends on how we view it, is it better to be or not to be under the law. Blessings comes first to the Jews then to the Gentiles, judgment also comes first to the Jews then to the Gentiles.

Is it better to stay at home or to go school? This is my boy's recent question. By norm, he should go school. But he is not getting any lessons and accordingly, the class always get scolding from the teacher for being noisy.

such questions is best to answer in what does God say and what does God wants to do in your life? How is the words meets the actual situation of life?

Is there some learning points Josef need to go trough and something God wants to do in his life, besides just lessons and scolding from school? Yes, I pray that God will speaks to him regarding this situation that he may hears and know what are the reasons for going to school and what are the reasons for not going. More importantly in both good and ideal and in bad and not ideal situation, there is something God wants to teach us. To Josef, I pray that he will learn about the unfairness of man judgment, but the fair judgment of God. I pray that he will learn about studying not just for knowledge but going to school to learn about social interactions and community interactions. I pray that he will go school to grow in wisdom, and in favour with man. Amen.
