Did you come to faith in Christ? If so, how so?Along this line of thinking, then I have to ask a couple of questions...
1) Why was it recorded at all? It does not concern any of us?
Obviously it was recorded because Christ died for all of us living 2,000 years later, too. I'd say if there were no other reason than this, that would be sufficient, don't you?
I'd start with "don't let your freedom in Christ be a stumbling block to others." Seems like pretty timeless advice, don't you think?2) What instruction is there in the Bible for us today? None of it is addressed to us specifically.
I'm pretty sure there are other, equally important lessons we can all take from it, even though not a single word of it was written to us, huh?
Seems like it might require some actual thought and study, though. Seems like there are few people willing to do that anymore, as evinced by threads like these.
