The Lost Sheep Coloring Page

Description of Coloring Page: Large illuminated letter "N", scripture reference from Luke 15: 3-7, this artists thought that the "wilderness" inhabited by humans was by far more threatening than the "wild wilderness of storms, plants, geography etc..." So he chose to show the lost lamb as being carried off by sinners and the good shepherd (top left) as one who prays first to God in heaven (top right) and then he begins to pursue his lost lamb. Modern artists tend to interpret the "wilderness" as literal wilderness uninhabited by people. Thus portraying this parable quite differently.

In the Gospel of Luke, the parable is as follows:

He told them this parable. "Which of you men, if you had one hundred sheep, and lost one of them, wouldn't leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one that was lost, until he found it? When he has found it, he carries it on his shoulders, rejoicing. When he comes home, he calls together his friends, his family and his neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!' I tell you that even so there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous people who need no repentance."

— Luke 15:3–7, World English Bible

What is wrong with this illustration of Cain and Abel?

       This drawing came from a Bible published in 1846, wow that's old! Cain and Abel are illustrated here in various scenes from the Bible. This kind of illustration was typical in times when many people did not know how to read. But there is something not quite right here...
       In the upper left, Cain and Abel are offering their gifts up to God on altars, although the artist was incorrect in his drawing of Cain's offering. He should have shown Cain burning vegetables here instead of a lamb. So he missed the whole point of the story. Because Cain offered the things up to God that he had grown himself, his offering has been often interpreted by many Bible teachers to be of lesser quality. The offended Cain became so angry with his brother's success that he killed Abel. (This murder scene appears lower at the front of the illustration.)
       The scene on the right is of God the Father chastising Cain for his offering or it could be God confronting Cain for murdering his brother. It's interesting that the Bible says Cain believes that he is being corrected for making a bad offering because it represents his vanity. But God doesn't tell Cain why he has made a lesser offering at all, He simply tells him that he must try harder next time to do what is pleasing.
       So why did God prefer Abel's offering? Biblical scholars tell us it is because the lamb sacrificed at his altar reminded God of Jesus, who is the sacrificial lamb i. e. the perfect offering.

The Pharisee and the Publican Coloring Page

Description of Coloring Page: Large illuminated letter "O", parable illustrated - Luke 18:9-14:

To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everyone else, Jesus told this parable: “Two men went to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other one a Publican. The Pharisee, stood by himself and prayed: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people—thieves, rogues, adulterers— or this Publican. I fast twice a week and give thee tithes of all I earn.’ “But the Publican stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast in sorrow and said, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner.’ “I tell you, this man went down to his home justified rather than the other. For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”
