The Love of Power or the Power of Love?
Manage episode 453493182 series 1072099
Christ the King Sunday (Nov 24, 2024)
The trial scene of Jesus before Pilate has two witnesses, one testifying to the power of love (Jesus); one testifying to the love of power (Pilate).
After reflecting on how we see these two worldviews colliding throughout history, both in secular society but also in the church, Pastor Rob brings it back to our lives.
What does your life bear witness to: The power of love or the love of power?
This testimony is first borne out in our lives.
This testimony is also borne out at the communion rail, where we acknowledge both our tendency to give into the love of power, but also confess our ultimate hope in the power of love, who is Jesus.
The image of from James Tissot’s work: Jesus Before Pilate, Second Interview (Jésus devant Pilate. Deuxième entretien), 1886-1894
