Is "Dog" A Bad Name?


Mark 5-7

“Let the children be satisfied first, for it is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.” 7:27

As we walk with Christ today we may cringe at His response to the Syrophoenician women who is lying at His feet begging for Him to heal her daughter.  How are we to view such seemingly harsh words from our Lord who never sins?

I don’t know!!!

Here are two things I do know. 

Dogs are the most loyal of animals, loving to the end, faithful, wanting only your company for a lifetime of devotion.

The women got what she was begging for, Jesus healed her daughter.
