Elder brother sacrificed his life for younger brother
"...Jesus gave his life for our sins" - Galatians 1:4
Father Durai brought up his two sons named Ramu and Somu by petting them. Children who grew up obeying their parents at young age, when they became teenagers, they began to live as their wish. The eldest son Ramu occasionally obeyed his father. A younger son got associate with bad friends and went around with them. This created a painful heart in his father. One day as usual, Somu, went to college fought with one of his classmates and broke his head. When this news reached the ears of his father Durai, he became angry and resentful towards Somu. He scolded Somu, when he came home after college, Father said, "You are not my son, leave home." Somu said happily that he was leaving home and turned into a bandit along with his evil friends. Days passed. The father thought about Somu often and felt worried about him. Seeing that his father is worried, Ramu, the eldest son, went to his father and asked “Dad, will you accept Somu if he repents and returns home? Father replied. Definitely. I am waiting for that day. Then Father went to his servants and said you were more affectionate towards Somu than me. Will you tell him that I am willing to forgive and accept him? Immediately, the servants said if we go to meet Somu, we must go only at night because he is a robber. They refused, saying that even if they went there, it would be difficult for them to come back alive. Immediately Ramu said I am going father and left at night. When Ramu met Somu, Somu beat him and snatched the bag he was holding. Ramu then said to his brother, "Father wants to accept you. Repent and go home" and died. Immediately Somu thought that he had beaten his brother to death unjustly and realized his mistake and went to his home. The father happily accepted his son.
Dear brother and sister, in the same way Jesus came to this earth for our sins and gave his life to redeem us.
