Yes, a son always.   But in need of a turning around, correct?   If he had not turned what would have been the implications?   It seems to me that the prodigal son was separated from his father because of his decision to reject the father's partnership and live for himself.   Destruction was his only destiny. 

Agree?

That is most assuredly true.  Sitting in the pigpen did not restore him.  Neither did thinking about going back.  It was when he returned to the father that the celebration started.

Exactly, which is the definition of Repentance: not thinking the right thoughts, but turning from sin and doing right. Izzy
