Last week an idea came to me. I should do some theology on the Unadulterated Love blog. One morning when I was meditating, the story in Luke’s gospel came to mind, of the boy Jesus in the temple, aged twelve, gone missing. Luke’s Gospel points out the necessity of the hidden years of Jesus’ childhood and adolescence, that he might grow strong in the full experience of a human nature; thus he might be able to bring the Spirit of God into immediate contact with every human area. From the age of twelve, Jesus grew in all ways – physically, intellectually, emotionally and spiritually – for the work that lay ahead of him – he advanced in wisdom.
