Easter 2025
Nothing could be more urgent and important than responding to the resurrected Christ, who offers himself as our ultimate solution to every threat, challenge, and problem we face in this life and the next.
Nothing could be more urgent and important than responding to the resurrected Christ, who offers himself as our ultimate solution to every threat, challenge, and problem we face in this life and the next.
We are vulnerable to so many harmful effects of being sinners and living in a deceitful and sinful world, but Christ grants real life, daily provision, and ultimate protection from the consequences of sin.
God is rich in mercy to all, but shows the magnificence of his grace in bestowing favor to the penitent who deserve nothing but his unmitigated justice.
Jesus, with every right to establish the terms, makes clear that to be on his team we must give up the worldly norms of managing our own lives and putting our own interests and loves above his sovereign leadership.
Jesus shows that he has power over death, not as a representative of God, but as the Lord of life – an ultimate role that requires our allegiance and submission as his disciples.
This Christmas we should reaffirm our decision to follow the greatest Deliverer of all and then celebrate that deliverance with great joy!
Humbly call on Jesus to be your boss, because the resurrected Christ only accepts the call when he is called to be in charge!
