Luke 18:28
"But he said, “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.”"
Key Reflection
In Luke 18:28, Jesus asserts that human limitations and obstacles, which might seem insurmountable to people ("the things which are impossible with men"), do not restrict the divine power of God. This statement underscores a key theological point—that while human capabilities and understanding have their limits, God's abilities transcend these constraints. For a first-century audience, this would have been a powerful reminder that faith in God can overcome what appears to be insurmountable in human terms, reflecting the broader theme of divine intervention in the biblical narrative.
