In the story of the prodigal son, I’ve often wondered why the father was so forgiving when his good for nothing son showed up and he not only welcomes him back but kills the fatted calf for him. Then it dawned on me, the father thought his son was dead because the last time he had seen saw him was on the cross. That is the story of forgiveness.
I guess. Dads can be a bit like that…….. sure pissed off his brother though.
It also shows the value of a good entrance.

the other brother could have just been the flip side of the prodigal son ying and ynag up and down see what I’m getting at ?
Yes I do………. a bit of balance.

Wonder how forgiving he’d be if his son was a deadbeat. Not to throw anything negative in the conversation but it’s a modern reality.
lol wow your tough
that’s a highly circumstantial judgment imo but I’d leave it up to the father and son lol
