Lent (309)
  1. Nicodemus remained silent. He stopped talking. He stopped asking questions. And he listened. He simply listened to Jesus. It was his smartest move yet.
  2. Paul says he would inherit the entire world, not merely a little plot of land between Egypt and Syria. This is what God is after in the Messiah: All people and the entire Earth.
  3. This is the message of Lent. We are not called to sacrifice for Jesus in order to earn our salvation. Rather, we are called to remember the sacrifice that Jesus made for us.
  4. As disciples of Jesus, our righteousness cannot be performed before others, because our righteousness was already performed by Jesus.
  5. In this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson discuss the story of Nicodemus and his visit to Jesus in the middle of the night.
  6. Indeed, Jesus has come to rule the nations, but He will do this by submitting to His Father’s will, not Satan’s.
  7. You are part of a new type of humanity, let loose into the world through the life, death, and resurrection of King Jesus.
  8. Jesus reverses the curse on the tree! By His bloody sweat, suffering, death, and burial, He peeled away sins punishment.
