Easter 6 - Tuesday

Psalm 116 - A witness to the goodness and mercy of God.

Numbers 9:1-23 - "You must have the same regulations for the alien and the native born" Even in the midst of God setting apart His chosen people He shows that ultimately His will is universally valid. God shows no partiality. His law is true for all, and so is His Gospel.

Luke 16:1-18 - This parable has never been an easy one to understand. Is Jesus really saying we can be dishonest with other people's possessions and that's a good thing? The only thing I can see that helps here is the commentary at the end. Jesus says you cannot serve both God and money. So perhaps the question is, who is served by the manager's shrewdness?
