Ist der Weg das Ziel? Ob man ankommt oder wo man ankommt ist egal. Hauptsache man ist unterwegs.

Manfred Mebert wählt für seine Predigt die Verse 18 - 20 aus dem Kapitel 7 des Buches Micha. Das Buch Micha gehört zum Alten Testament und Micha war ein Prophet, der zur Zeit Jesajas im 7. - 8. Jh vor Chr. lebte. Das war zu der Zeit, als sich Israel durch seinen Lebenswandel soweit von Gott entfernt hatte, dass Gott eine Warnung ausstieß.

Sünde ist Totalschaden! Da gibt es nichts zu reparieren - ein einziger Scherbenhaufen! Unsere Versuchungen, denen wir erliegen und deren Folgen wir nicht absehen wollen oder können. Darum geht es.
