Easter Sunday: God is Greater
Manage episode 409885230 series 2562826
Through the Passion and Death of Jesus, all of the dysfunction and disorder of the world is hurled on Jesus. Hatred, anger, oppression, greed, abuse, betrayal, abandonment ... the worst that the world has to offer is heaped upon Jesus. And Jesus accepts the violence and hate. He does not defend himself but allows himself to succumb to these worst forces of evil, dying, being buried, and descending into hell. But this is not the end of the story! The resurrection of Jesus from the dead is the sign that God is victorious over sin and death. There's no filth that the world can throw at Jesus that itself is not forgiven and redeemed in the ocean of God's mercy. And ourselves, too: May we allow Jesus to touch the dysfunction and disorder in our hearts, so that this contact with the most pure one can render us clean with the new life of the Resurrection!
