Draco Malfoy and the Mothers of Jesus

Sunday we're going to look at the women God selected to highlight in Jesus' family tree.
You'd expect Mother Teresa types, right?

Nope.  Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, and Bathsheba
 
Not a "perfect" bloodline, we shall see.  But it is the perfect bloodline to highlight the gospel and to trample over any sense that we earn our way to special-ness through our own stuff.
 
stop reading here if you don't have a favorite quidditch team.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
While prepping this message I'm reminded of this quote:
"I really don't think they should let the other sort [half-bloods, muggle-born] in, do you? They're just not the same, they've never been brought up to know our ways. Some of them have never even heard of Hogwarts until they get the letter, imagine. I think they should keep it in the old wizarding families." - Draco
