Confessions Of A Duppy. Part [2] 01/30/2026 (Morning thought)

Matthew 20: 29 And as they departed from Jericho, a great multitude followed him. 30 And, behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Jesus passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of David.

For example, if God was to inspire different writers, from different backgrounds, to describe the above scene, you will have varying renditions of the same inspiration. From the perspective of the realtor, you would probably have mentions of the houses in the background, in addition to the central theme. From the perspective of a doctor, you would have a more detailed focus on the state of their vision, in addition to possible injuries.

Thus, even though the three writers in question are inspired by the same source, the way in which they write, and depict what they saw, would most likely be affected by their varying backgrounds but it does not change the central them of the inspiration. The same is true with the word of God. Holy men of God spoke as they were moved, and inspired by The Holy Ghost, and they wrote in their style and words, focusing on different parts of the inspiration.

That is why it took four gospels, to properly depict the life of Christ, as the various writers focused on the differing highlights of Christ’s ministry and life. Matthew, Mark, Luke and John all came from widely different backgrounds, and very often, they focused on different highlights of the inspirations given to them by God.

Matthew 20:31 And the multitude rebuked them, because they should hold their peace: but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of David.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
