Jesus' Dealing

Spreading the Gospel - Jesus did not deal with problem, but He dealt with individual transformation at the person's comfort/effective zone.

When I was watching an interview show of "It's a new day", Judy Reamer’s speech dawned onto a puzzle that I had since I was at a young age. Thanks to Judy!

Why the methods used by Jesus healing the blinds were different each time?

  1. Took the blind man by the hand and led him outside the village... spit on the man's eyes and put his hands on him - Mark 8:22-25
  2. "What do you want me to do for you?"... touched their eyes - Matthew 20:29-34
  3. Jesus did not touch the blind man but just mentioned the man's faith: "Go," said Jesus, "your faith has healed you."- Mark 10:46-52
Why the ways of Jesus (God as flesh) towards reconciling Father-and-man relationship for people were different under similar situation?

  1. Lead a woman out of sinful life in public - John 8:1-11
  2. Lead a man out of sinful life in private - Luke 19:1-10
Why the ways of God reacting toward people are different under similar situation?
  1. God’s response to Joseph when had question about the baby virgin Mary was bearing - Matthew 1:19-20
  2. God’s response to when had question about the baby his wife Elizabeth was bearing - Luke 1:18-20
Judy said that: "God / Jesus (God became flesh) did not deal with problem, but He dealt with individual person.", especial with a substantial emphasis on dealing at people’s comfort zone with sensitivity. That's Jesus' wisdom.
