👀 how many times did you see THESE THREE WORDS today? have you ever noticed that people who follow Jesus don’t use his name in the past tense? why is that?
bc after three days, Jesus conquered death! The work was finished and the story of God making things right leaps forward….
-the shame that was put on Jesus days before, God put to death, Jesus has ultimate honor and invites humanity to be part of his honorable family
-death was dealt the final blow and fear cannot stand against the power that defeating death
-the guilt sentence for sin was paid for in its entirety and now we have the gift of innocence extended to us to receive
so the story doesn’t end with friday, it is CONTINUING PRESENT DAY and we have the opportunity to live in a new kingdom that cannot be shaken. and that is great news today, and tomorrow, and the next day...because Jesus is alive and interacting with the world today!
If questions have come up this weekend, reach out and we’ll grab coffee and listen to them!
