Christ does not replace or erase the history of the Old Testament. He brings it to its fullness. The historical fulfillments demonstrate God's faithfulness in their own time and also bear witness to the greater fulfillment accomplished in Jesus Christ.

But this is not a story of Jesus being taken many places. This is a story of Jesus remaining in one place and deepening in His love of the Spirit and the Father.

Ultimately the Christian life isn't about progress, it's about promise--the Pilgrim's Promise.

Faith is a gift from God. It’s not flashy or boast-worthy. It’s total dependency on the God who saves utter fools.
02/17/20
God interrupts Peter, but not only to quiet him. He also directs Peter to listen to someone else.
02/13/20
Christianity has never been about getting people to clam up and look the part. It’s about Christ calling sinners to himself.

Virtue, like all good things, can easily be weaponized. And not only can, but constantly is. Indeed, I would argue that, for churchgoing, rule-following, tradition-honoring, morality-applauding people, virtue often becomes the cancer that we deem a badge of honor.

It’s a delivery of historical facts that tells us who Jesus is and what he has done for us through his dying on the cross and his rising from the grave.

We live in the strength of our baptism again and again and again, returning to it every day according to God's promise.
