Why Jesus Came into the World (Bad Theology Tuesday)

 

 

Jesus did not come into the world to be your friend. He didn’t come to be a hero. He didn’t come to be a revolutionary. Jesus came into the world to die. It’s that simple…yet that profound. Everything in the universe that happened was about Jesus’s holy life and bitter sufferings and death for you. That’s what the Bible and Christianity are all about.

The TRUE Glory of God (Lectionary Monday)

 

 

The glory and majesty of God is not found in the shekinah, not in the pillars of fire and smoke, not in the burning bush. It’s not found in that feeling that you have when you’re singing your favorite hymn. It’s not in the sky or the cosmos. The true glory and majesty of Almighty God is found in the suffering and death of Jesus on the cross for you.

“Hosanna” and the Gift of Palm Sunday (Saturday Special)

 

 

As Jesus rides in to Jerusalem, the people wave their palm branches, a symbol of peace, in the city of peace, for the King who brings peace. And as they did, they cried out the Hebrew word, “Hosanna,” which means, “Save us, Lord.” That really applies to today! Save us, Lord! Save us from sickness, this virus, fear…and  from death. Save us from our sins.

Surviving Holy Week without Going to Church (Fun Word Friday)

 

 

Just because you can’t go to church, it doesn’t mean you can’t gather around the Lord’s Words and promises for you in Scripture. So make this Holy Week full of the Lord’s Words with your family. Gather up all the devotional materials you can (like HT’s FREE Daily Reflections). And be around the Lord’s Words and let them be a gift to you.

Watch Your Boasting (Bible Study Thursday)

 

 

All the things you are tempted to boast in which are not the cross of Christ — whether it’s your life change, your decision, or how much much better you are than you used to be — are all great things to do (good job!). But none of them help you stand before God. Only Christ saves you. Everything else is varying degrees of of not-Jesus. Only Jesus saves you.

Are We Living in the Last Days? (What’s UP? Wednesday)

 

[embedhttps://youtu.be/ZWY6qMPz5ps[/embed]

 

Are we living in the last days? Is Jesus coming soon? Well, yes. But we shouldn’t think that He’s coming because there’s a plague. He’s coming because He SAID He’s coming. These might not the Last Days because there’s a virus, they ARE – because He SAID He’s coming soon. Don’t fear that you’re being punished, He loves you. He’s coming to save you.

Judging in Corona-land (Bad Theology Tuesday)

 

 

God is the only one who judges. When you judge others (or they judge you) it doesn’t matter. The only judgement that matters is the Son of God, dead on the cross for you. Everything else pales in comparison. What’s most important is the suffering and death of Jesus. That’s the only judgement that matters, and it’s the one you need to give to others, too.

Jesus Quarantines Himself — to Save You (Lectionary Monday)

 

 

Jesus escapes death by stoning from the Pharisees by fleeing from them. God hides Himself — quarantines Himself — to save you by taking on your sin on the cross. He won’t escape on Good Friday. Jesus social-distances Himself from the Pharisees in this week’s lesson in order to make it to the cross, where He will die to save you.

Passiontide and the Gift(?) of the Quarantine (Fun Word Friday)

 

 

Find the gifts today. Find the gifts in what’s going on. Discover the good in all that’s going around you. Look for what God is turning into good for you. And take a break from dwelling on the craziness to fix your eyes on Jesus. That’s what the Passiontide is about. And that’s what He’s teaching you. You can trust Him. He will save you and bring you through this.

The Realness of the Sacred Scriptures – Gal 6:11 (Bible Study Thursday)

 

 

This verse shows the realness of God breathing words through His apostles — even a frail, old Paul can’t see and has to write in giant letters. The Scriptures are the inspired word of God, written by men, as a gift. When you read the Scriptures, you’re reading God’s own Words, delivered by His servants. They were actual human beings, real people in a real time.
