God’s Absurd Generosity! | Luke 16:1–13 | The Parable of the Dishonest Manager
Here’s the heart of it all: God Himself is the absurd master. Faced with the tragedy of our sin, He didn’t clutch His wealth. He didn’t demand repayment. He gave His only begotten Son into the flesh to save us from sin, death, and damnation.
Jesus is the true steward who didn’t just cut our debts, He paid them in full with His blood. He didn’t just ease our burden; He bore it all. He didn’t just lower our balance; He stamped across the ledger: “It is finished.”
The cross is the most absurd act in history. God’s own Son dies for sinners. The guilty go free. The dishonest, the greedy, the selfish, the prayerless, the vain—all forgiven. Absurd. Crazy. Wonderful.
