Pentecost (672)
  1. The only way to have a life which is not meaningless is to have the life God gives you in the resurrected Christ.
  2. The new life that is hidden in Christ through burial and resurrection is a new life that starts at your baptism, God’s work on your behalf that has ongoing effects.
  3. When people have idols, God ends up becoming the power they turn to to keep their idol going.
  4. Abraham is a man caught between the wrath of God from Heaven for sin and pleading for the mercy of sinners below on earth.
  5. This is what baptism indicates. It is an identity with the victor. It is comforting that the enemies have no hold on me, on us.
  6. From the beginning of the biblical narrative to the end, God is a God of conversation and community. He speaks and He gathers. That is what God does. That is who God is.
