同情人的耶穌有祂的喜好

同情人的耶穌有祂的喜好：祂偏愛卑微、渺小、簡單的人。祂召叫牧羊人到馬槽旁；牧羊人是耶穌的第一批使徒，因為他們向其他人講論耶穌，儘管他們不是站在講道台。（APD47, 34）

Jesus has preferences and shows particular fondness; he prefers the humble, the insignificant, the simple. He called the shepherds to his crib; they were Jesus’ first apostles because they were the first to speak of him to their acquaintances, without getting up to a teacher’s desk (APD47, 34).
