TOPIC INDEXJesus Christ (152)
  1. Jesus Christ is our peace because he doesn't criticize us. He declares us freed from our perceptions to accept the truth about ourselves.
  2. Our anxiety about the future is a consequence of our old self’s attempts to achieve freedom for himself apart from Christ Jesus.
  3. Christmas-time is the bold proclamation that God was born to save sinners.
  4. People do not seek the gospel because they want to, but because God’s Word drives them to it.
  5. To a world enslaved to time (because it has no future), the Church's disregard for clocks and calendars is ridiculous.
  6. Jesus overcame sin, death, and Satan on the cross. His bloody suffering and death marked this sinful world's defeat.
  7. God's justice is marked and measured by sacrificial love, not power as the world defines it.
  8. Unlike human marriage, which is marred by sin, Jesus never seeks to divorce us due to irreconcilable differences.
  9. We need a God who acts for us, each of us in particular. We need a God who sticks to His Word that He will never abandon or forsake us.
  10. God uses the fifth commandment to protect us from selfishness, prevent us from only thinking about our needs, and to drive us to Christ and our neighbors.
  11. Jesus will strengthen and encourage us because he is true life, and life has defeated death.
  12. In God's way of doing salvation, we see Jesus crucified and risen from death. We see in Jesus God's great mercy and the depths of our selfish sinfulness.
