Luke 2:41-52. Dan Kroon. Luke is the only Gospel writer to give us a small glimpse into the boyhood of Jesus. And in that small glimpse we get another testimony, this time from Jesus' own lips, about the reality of his dual sonship. That is, he was both a boy of earthly parents and a boy of a heavenly father. And at age twelve, on the cusp of manhood, he recognises his calling to go about the things of his heavenly Father. To be in his Father's house. To be about his Father's business. It doesn't come at the cost of obedience to his earthly parents, but still as a first priority. And what was his Father's business? To make all of us children of God as well. So that we too can be in our Father's house and be about our Father's business.
