Bible Study Luke 1:80

Luke 1:80
KJV 80 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his shewing unto Israel.
Luke 1:80Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)
80 The child grew up and became spiritually strong, and he was in the wilderness until the day of his public appearance to Israel.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.

We are the same when first gain the Spirit we start off as children and grow in the Spirit and it makes us strong but keeps us depend on Him. This is why there is no story about Christ growing up, He lived in the wilderness and made no public appearances, this does not mean He did not go to the temple when it was time but went as others and acted as He was no different than others.
 
He acted very different than others. Just like children raised in Yhwh's Life act very different from all the other children in any neighborhood. Yeshua lived righteously all His life, including His childhood.
Children raised right with Yhwh also live righteously (by faith in Yeshua) and do not take part in many of the sins of 'normal' average children.
 
Luke 1:80 makes me refer to Luke 2:52 NKJV. It says, "And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men."

So what this is telling me is if I want to see divine favor in my life I must show kindness! Why? Because Proverbs 3:1-4 NLT reads:

My child,[a] never forget the things I have taught you.
Store my commands in your heart.
2 If you do this, you will live many years,
and your life will be satisfying.
3 Never let loyalty and kindness leave you!
Tie them around your neck as a reminder.
Write them deep within your heart.
4 Then you will find favor with both God and people,
and you will earn a good reputation.

Matthew 10:34-39Amplified Bible (AMP)
34 Do not think that I have come to bring peace upon the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.
35 For I have come to part asunder a man from his father, and a daughter from her mother, and a newly married wife from her mother-in-law—
36 And a man’s foes will be they of his own household.
37 He who loves [and takes more pleasure in] father or mother more than [in] Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves [and takes more pleasure in] son or daughter more than [in] Me is not worthy of Me;
38 And he who does not take up his cross and follow Me [cleave steadfastly to Me, conforming wholly to My example in living and, if need be, in dying also] is not worthy of Me.
39 Whoever finds his [lower] life will lose it [the higher life], and whoever loses his [lower] life on My account will find it [the higher life].

Actually Luke 1:80 is about John the Baptist, not Jesus.
 
Jesus spent part of His missing years in England - see for yourself here google [The traditions of Glastonbury] by American E.Raymond Capt
 
There is nothing in the bible about Him going to England, it is simply tradition which means it is not fact but it could be, it truly does not matter where He was otherwise scripture would have mentioned it.
