In every other world religion, forgiveness comes at the expense of the perfection of God. Christianity is different because God never has to exchange His perfection so that we can experience freedom and grace. Why did Jesus have to die? Jesus is the way that God can forgive us and see us as a brand new creation because of what He accomplished on the cross.

If you’ve ever been confused by something Jesus has said, you’re not alone. Even the people that heard His voice audibly were confused, too. It can be difficult to understand what He did and said when it’s such a radical departure from what had always existed. The confusion between the Old Testament and the New Testament still exists today, but this week we hope to shed insight on exactly what Jesus meant when He said He would destroy a building and rebuild it again in three days.

While Jesus was alive, he said and did some things that may seem confusing. Why did he even come into the world in the first place? Why did he make some people so angry? Why did he have to die? What about his life and death makes our life what it is today?

It’s the beginning of Daylight Saving Time, so what better opportunity is there to talk about time? DST was created so we would have the appearance of more time, but does anyone actually feel more productive or rested this week? The irony is the seasons and cyclical rhythm of the earth don’t change because we label it. The concept of cycles and rhythms is part of creation.

After we confess our sin and receive forgiveness, Jesus asks us to leave our life of sin and go a different way or make a different choice. He knew, though, that we would come up against temptation to repeat our mistakes again. Thus, He concludes his lesson on prayer with addressing how we can ask God to help us mitigate temptation in our lives.
