Lately, I have been failing in the regularity of my posts because of two consecutive Chrysalis walks and the preparation for those. (Which went amazingly, if you were wondering.) Anyways, God has shown me many cool things in the last couple weeks that I can't wait to share, but today is less of a scripture reference and more of a generalized thought. It seems many of us have lazily allowed parts of the salvation story to "slip through the cracks." We rarely fail to appreciate the death and suffering of Christ for our life everlasting, but we try to keep Him in the grave. He rose. The anomalous reality is that Christ lived a perfect life, was fully human while fully God, walked among thieves and tramps, and died for our sake, then he rose again. I think we all get caught up in the death of Christ which took on our shame, but even more miraculous is the fact that He lives now!
It is my desire to show people the relevance of this part of the story, because any man could have died, only one could rise from the grave. Look at the world today through this lense; one that doesn't skew our salvation and doesn't inhibit the true accomplishment of Christ.
