My story is titled the prodigal son comes back home.
This story tells of a prodigal son who comes home , the father and son who are reunited after a long time.
The parable of a lost son can be found in the Mahayana Buddhist and the Bible.
The story of the prodigal son is one of the parables of Jesus Christ.
Once upon a time, a son leaves a father in the Lotus sutra ,there was a lapse on who recognizes his wealthy father and was terrified of his fathers accumulated power and wealth , attendants to welcome the son, the son panics . The father then lets the son leave with a heap of straw to sleep on and employment.The Parable of the prodigal son or the forgiving father.
The prodigal son is the third and final parable of a cycle of redemption following the parables of the lost sheep and the lost coin.
The prodigal son parable begins with a wealthy man who has two sons, the younger of whom asks for his share of the fathers estate. The implication was that the son did not want to wait till the fathers death and he wanted his fathers inheritance.
The parable of the prodigal son also known as the son , loving father and the forgiving father.
This is one of the parables of Jesus Christ in Luke 15:11-32 . Also the prodigal son is the third and final parable of a cycle of redemption.
The story begins with a wealthy man who had two sons the younger of whom asks for his share of his fathers estate.
However the implication is that the son did not want to wait for his father death to receive his inheritance but instead wanted it immediately. The father then agrees and then divides his estates between the two.
Also when the prodigal son receives his portion of the inheritance , the younger so who happens to be the prodigal son traveled to a distant country.
Again the prodigal son traveled to a distant country where he squanders his fathers wealth through some sort of reckless living.
He then runs out of money just before a famine strikes the land, leaving him desperately poor and he was forced to take a low paying job as a swineherd.
The prodigal sons actions did not lead to success. He squanders his inheritance and then eventually did a degrading job of looking after pigs and even envying them for the carob pods, they eat.
Whoever loves wisdom gives joy to his fathers and whoever consorts with harlots squanders his wealth.
the prodigal son was treated with generosity.
Also the prodigal son reaches a point of envying the food of the pigs he was feeding . It was at that time that he finally comes to his senses.
When the prodigal son came to his senses , he said How many servants of my fathers have bread enough and to spare and I perish with hunger. Also the prodigal son , said he will arise and go to his father and he will say unto him , Father I have sinned against heaven and before thee. Am also not worthy to be called your son make me as one of the hired servants . Later he arose and came to his father . His father saw his son, the prodigal son and had compassion for him and kissed him.
Also parents do not loose thought for your children . In the same way God took those who lived in a misspent life giving them time for reformation and also keeping within nature. The prodigal son was made to resolve and to forsake sin. Also the prodigal son was made to dedicate himself to pleasing God , the power in the mysteries of repentance and communion.
The prodigal son story tells of how God longs to see us come home . Also how God longs to embrace us and forgive us celebrate our return.
Also God longs to see those who are dead, restored back to life.
The whole Universe of Gods mercy and forgiveness is the open wide to receive those without hesitation.
Sinners that represent Christians are still saved , both the publicans and fornicators are cleansed by repentance in heaven. The compassionate God still calls to himself all that have turned away.
The loving father still receives his prodigal son when he came back home from a far country and then clothes him in the best of cloth and then gives him a ring on his finger and shoes to wear.
Finally, the story of the prodigal son illustrates forgiveness and redemption , where a son wastes his inheritance but is welcomed back with love by his father .
Again this implies that the father was watching hopefully for his son's return , the prodigal son. His son the prodigal son declares himself unworthy of being his fathers son but does not even finish before his hesitation.
His father calls for the servants to dress the son in the finest clothes and then put a ring on his finger for a celebrating meal or welcoming party.
However, in the fields there were celebrations of the welcoming party of the prodigal son about his return to his father . His father during the party and aftermath of the party accepts his son the prodigal son without hesitation. The father calls for the servants to dress his son with sandals on his feet and to slaughter the cow for a celebrating meal. Again the older son, who was at work in the fields hears the sound of celebrations and got annoyed.
He was not impressed so he became angry. He had a speech for his father. The first born of the wealthy man argued that for many years he had served his father neither transgressions or commandment and yet he never gave me a kid , that I may make merry with my friends but for my younger brother the prodigal son, your father have killed the fat cow for him. -Luke 15:29-30.
His father explained to his older son , that he has always been present , but because the younger son the prodigal son had traveled to a far country and has now returned back , we should all make merry for hid return and then be glad for his brother was dead and is now alive and found. Luke 15:32.
Lastly, the key elements of the prodigal son story includes
1. The Request: The younger son requested for money from his fathers estate.
2. The squandering: The prodigal son , who happens to be his younger son spent all the money and he became poor doing odd jobs.
3.The Return: After the prodigal son did all sorts of jobs , he decided to go back to his father , so that hew may be treated like a servant.
4. The Forgiveness: His father was so happy of his son's return that he killed a fat cow in celebration and merry making.
