If sin is only a matter of “doing,” then “undoing” and/or “redoing” would serve as the equivalent savior necessary to find redemption.

As we gather for Palm Sunday, John invites us to simply experience the wonder of Jesus, the Lord of all, who does His work in humility.

Paul wants us to see this “present evil age” is dominated by a theology of glory and “the age to come” is dominated by a theology of the cross. They are two ways of understanding and interpreting all of reality, but especially the ways and nature of God.

Ultimately, there is only one Lord of the Universe, and he does not share power. If Jesus is Lord, Caesar is not.

Being able to tell the difference between truth and lies is at the core of repentance.
03/18/21
The petition not to be led into temptation is found in just the right place within the seven petitions.

James and John come before Jesus and request positions of honor in His coming Kingdom. While we may be surprised at their actions, we understand their desires. They are interested in upward mobility.
03/13/21
Jesus lives to intercede. So we needn’t bring him our feigned righteousness or our faux rehabilitation.
03/12/21
Repentance means being cut down by the law’s declaration of judgment. It’s not an activity we do to prepare for grace, but a point of despair worked by God himself.
