Identity in Jesus

January 19, 2025

Book: Luke

Scripture: Luke 2:41–52

12-year-old Jesus is accidentally left behind in Jerusalem after Passover. After searching for three days, Mary and Joseph they find Jesus in the temple discussing scripture with religious teachers who were amazed by His understanding. When questioned by His worried parents, Jesus responded that “I must be in my father’s house,” demonstrating that even as a pre-teen, He knew His true identity was rooted in God the Father.
