JESUS? - A Revolution of Humanity part two

Rev. Dr. Miskelly explores how Jesus redefined human dignity and worth in the ancient world. Dr. Miskelly explains that in ancient times, there was a 'dignity gap' where only kings were considered made in God's image, while children, slaves, and the poor were seen as disposable. Jesus revolutionized this by teaching that every person is made in God's image and has inherent worth - not earned worth, but bestowed worth from God's love. The sermon uses examples like the practice of 'exposure' (abandoning unwanted children) and contrasts it with Jesus' radical teaching about welcoming children. Through the story of Dick and Richard Hoyt, Dr. Miskelly illustrates how Jesus carries us when we are broken and unable to save ourselves,
demonstrating that our worth comes not from our abilities but from God's love.
