What are you DOING?? Making the sign of the cross — isn’t that Roman Catholic? Actually, no. It’s a motion Christians have made throughout history to remind us Whose name we have been given, were baptized into, and carry every day and everywhere we go.

Being like St. Paul isn’t like being a new and improved, better person (though you really should still work on that…). Paul is saying that we should be like him — actually knowing and believing the Gospel, living by faith alone in Christ alone for salvation, free from the condemnation of the Law.

No one actually believes Romans 8:28 — that God is working everything out for our good. If we truly did, we would keep the 10 Commandments. Suffering doesn’t mean that God is punishing you, God is working good through it for you. How do we know? Because of the suffering and death of Jesus.

Things can snowball quickly when you start worrying. And there’s plenty of stuff to worry about, if that’s what you want to do. But you have a God who loves you and takes care of you and only has good planned for you–all in the giving-up of His Son for you. He’s going to take care of you and do what’s best for you. He’s promised, and He keeps His promises. Look to Jesus for evidence of that!

“C’mon Jesus, do that thing you do and just heal the guy!” That’s what everyone expects hin to do for the deaf guy that day. He should wave a hand over the guy and chant some mumbo-jumbo. But that’s not the kind of God Jesus is. He doesn’t do things the way we think He should — sometimes He heals with wet-willies! We couldn’t make this stuff up if we tried!

This week on Fun Word Friday, let’s sort out the alphabet soup of American Lutheran church bodies, a little bit of history, and how and why they’re different. There are the visible things that distinguish one from another but the differences are more fundamental than what we see externally. It’s all about how we understand the Word of God.

Christ has set us free from being able to be judged for worshipping the Lord on one day or another. According to Paul in Galatians, Christians can faithfully worship on Saturday or on Sunday…or on Tuesday if they want. That’s not what makes anyone a “better” Christian or holier than anyone else. Only Christ makes us holy.

When someone has done something awful or mean to you, it’s often difficult to forgive them — especially when they’re not even sorry. Do we really have to forgive those people for those things?

It’s a belated Lectionary Monday combined with Out of Context Tuesday! When we read the parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector and envision ourselves as the pious and humble Tax Collector, thanking God we’re not like those judgmental Pharisees…we’re reading the parable COMPLETELY WRONG!
