Lamb Living

Identity Crisis

Forgiveness in the face of injustice is difficult. Seeking reconciliation is even harder – it often feels wrong not to fight back. But Revelation shows us a Jesus who is not a conquering lion, but a slaughtered lamb. And his sacrificial forgiveness and reconciliation – as demonstrated when he appears resurrected to Peter – make him worthy to rule the universe. How can we imitate his example?

During this series, we’ve been exploring the three temptations using Dostoyevsky’s “The Grand Inquisitor”.

This Sunday, we’re going to switch things up. I’m going to share some of my own fiction that I’ve used to reflect on the nature of Jesus third test.

What did it mean that Satan told Jesus to worship him? How could Satan offer up the kingdoms of the world?

Questions to consider… until we gather on Sunday. See you then!

 

Join us Sunday as we explore what it takes to rule the world – and why we should fail that test.
