THIS IS WHAT MOST PREACHERS HAVE NOT TOLD US WHENEVER THEY PREACH ABOUT THE PRODIGAL SON.

I have heard so many messages preached on the altar about the prodigal son (Luke 15:11-32). Let closely examine the the Elder brother.

My concern is that whenever the story of the prodigal son is narrated, the emphasis and focus is always centered on the prodigal son himself…
What about the Elder brother?

The elder brother to the prodigal son…

If you look at the church today, you will see a lot of Christians who fit into the description of the elder brother of the prodigal son…

They appear zealous, holy and committed but when you take a closer look at their lives, you’ll begin to spot similar errors…

Here are just four (4) questions for the elder brother of the prodigal son…

Please, if you see him, help me ask these four (4) questions:

1. Where were you, when your younger brother was making the terrible decision he made?

2. How come you never made any attempt to go look for your younger brother to know how he was coping after he left the house?

3. Why were you angry and bitter that he returned and that his return was celebrated?

4. Why were you giving your father reasons why he shouldn’t have celebrated the return of your brother?

A Christianity where the errors and fall of a fellow comrade becomes an opportunity to rise is evil…

A Christianity where we try to gain favour and prove loyalty before authority by discrediting or running down a fellow brother is satanic…

A Christianity where we neglect and abandon our wounded brothers is demonic…
