Luke13:30 Behold, there are some who are last who will be first, and there are some who are first who will be last."
How can a legally minded Christian's set upon earn merit comprehend Christ Jesus words here? How could a legally minded Jew for that matter understand Christ words here? Well, simply put they can't it goes against the nature of the natural fleshly minded person to understand love.
Their world is a world of earned merit. In other words, everything in the legal minded person world is earned from birth to death including love. Which means, they must earn the first place, but here Christ says not! He stating shocking sobering words to a fleshly minded person lusting in their spirit of upward movement to being the top dog on the heap pile.
All in the fleshly minded person life is top dog, give him a bone and he will fight for it unless a bigger dog takes it. Give a dog a title of Christian's does not change the dog into a saint. The point, position and power had nothing to do with the Jew's earned position in his society, nor the Christian's, it has to do with Christ Jesus. It is Christ Jesus righteousness that gives all person a standing with God, gentile of Jew. Being the eye in the body is not sought for, worked for, politic for, it is created by the body from birth. Soon many listening to Christ Jesus words would become part of his new spiritual body the temple of God, they would be recreated by God's Holy Spirit place into the body by Christ Jesus righteousness and not their own. So no dogy dog world for those living in Christ under the law of love.
God will determine far out the legals minds jurisdiction whom and where body members fit in, first, last or whatever pleases the creator of us.
