Our transformation from clever but easily spooked hominids into God’s children of light is revealed in the resurrection and glorification of Christ, the firstborn of the dead.
The general resurrection, in other words, will be God coming to mow the lawn of history. Jesus frequently, clearly and openly preached exactly this. Even unbelievers will be judged. Those who shared with the needy will be spared God’s mower blade, but those who didn’t will not.
Granting the power of the Holy Spirit to those who are blind to the gospel of love may simply be a nice big spool of rope for those without love to make a noose out of.
To be infused with God’s Holy Spirit is to be knit into a manifestation of God in the world, to become an integral part of an organic whole.
How do we find community again? How do we connect with our neighbors again? How do we rebuild our churches?
Your holiness is not like anyone else’s. By definition, that’s what holiness is.
…there’s no better time to light a candle than when everything is dark.
