Compassion

Luke 15:1-10

The readings tell a lot about compassion and not having to pass judgment on another because God is a merciful judge who is not fond of condemning people to death;

Second, we too are called to practice compassion for one another.  Compassion may have two connotations: the first calls us to suffer with one another which is the element of passion; and the other definition of passion which means "ignited by file and zeal" that we bring life to one another.

In both of these definitions, we see the very face of the suffering Jesus as well as the passionate Jesus who intends the salvation and not the condemnation of the children of God.
