Faith

Our children are not our own, but even more, our children are born in need. They are sinful, from conception and from birth.

So what, if anything, makes us different from those who are waiting on the grassy knoll in Dallas, TX? Can we be any more sure of our belief in the resurrection?

If Jesus is indeed the same yesterday, today, and forever, everything his enfleshment brings is already assured: life, salvation, and forgiveness.

That's how true faith talks. It doesn't talk about itself. It says "Thank you!" to the one who gives healing and salvation.

The church is the only place God promises to lift us out of ourselves not in order to become more like God but so that we may finally be freed from our obsession with becoming little gods.
