Because of Christ, we regard no one according to their flesh, but see God’s image in them. As ministers of reconciliation, we must never forget that His arms are not too short to save whomever He wishes.

Jesus is referred to as “Lord” in Scripture 750 times. It is His most frequent title and His most subversive. In the Roman empire, Christians resisted Caesar’s perverse “family values” and instead lived by countercultural ethics and morals, recognizing Jesus “is the head of all rule and authority.”

All authority belongs to God. All government authorities are mere stewards of His authority. So we as children of God and temporary citizens of earth seek to obey the law, do good in our cities, and push against the darkness of our day.

The world is being held hostage by evil forces to such a degree, that it can only be freed by a radical in-breaking of God. In our day of trouble, it will not be baby Jesus who comes to rescue us, but “Christus Victor”—Jesus, the warrior.

Without deep relationships and a devotion to reach those far from God, our unique gifts, wirings, and placements terminate on ourselves and we become as stagnant and lifeless as the Dead Sea. There is a way that feels right but leads to bondage and decay. God’s way is a promise of life and freedom.

It is easy for us in the West to think we have no idols while disregarding the worship we give to comfort, approval, control, and power. The gospel stands as the ever-present reminder that we serve a living God and only He deserves our worship.

The unique, God-given picture of the future is one of every tribe, tongue, and nation worshiping face-to-face with Jesus. It will be a great gathering of the saints—a people purified, perfect, without division, and without shame.

After a long day of ministry, Jesus called the disciples to take a boat across the water and promised to meet them on the other side. Knowing a storm was heading their way, Jesus set the disciples up to behold one of the greatest miracles of their lives. He showed Himself as supernatural, personal, and as the one who deserves all worship.
