The Spiritual Development of Christ
Luke 2:49
And he said to them, How is it that you sought me? knew you not that I must be about my Father's business?


I. THE FIRST DAWNING CONSCIOUSNESS OF HIS MESSIAHSHIP.

II. THE FIRST DAWNING CONSCIOUSNESS OF HIS PECULIAR RELATION TO HIS FATHER.

III. THE RESULTS OF THESE THOUGHTS UPON HIS LIFE. Eighteen years of silence, and then — the regeneration of the world accomplished, His Father's business done.

(Stopford A. Brooke, M. A.)
