“When I look at Jesus' warm and intimate friendships, my heart fills with praise that Jesus was. . . a man. A man of flesh-and-blood reality. His heart felt the sting of sympathy. His eyes glowed with tenderness. His arms embraced. His lips smiled. His hands touched. Jesus was male! Jesus invites us to relate to him as the Son of Man. And because he is fully man, we can relate to Jesus with affection and love.” MenLooksHeartHandsRealityEyeJesusFeltChristianityBloodSonArmsMy HeartAnd LovePraiseMalesLipsAffectionWarmFleshRelateIntimateHis EyesTouchedInvitesTendernessFlesh And BloodChristian LoveHeart Felt Author:Joni Eareckson Tada
