The point of Jesus’ death and resurrection is not to get us to heaven — it’s to bring heaven into us.

“Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.”

Jesus

Lovely is the picture of a staircase stretching from earth to heaven. At the top, dancing their way from stair to golden street, is a rag-tag group of folk. Their jubilant revelry is fueled by drunkenness, but not of drink. As it was in Acts 2, they “are not drunken, as ye suppose”…no…theirs, instead, is a bender borne of gratitude and gladness…their entrance is equal parts Mardi Gras and homecoming.

At the bottom of the picture’s staircase are the religious folk. Though they have also been invited to the heavenly city, they now find themselves loathe to accept that invitation. Their arms angrily folded, their faces full of contempt, they are protesting the entrance of the motley crew ahead of them, deigning to enter a place where “those kind of people” are welcomed.

Unmoved by their appeals for “justice,” God and angels patiently wait, their hearts and hands extended, their faces marked by understanding and compassion…they know what a surprise all of this must be for them. Eventually, though, one by one, these whose souls have long been burdened by the awful sin of self-righteousness, yield. Begrudging at the first and reluctant over the first flights, with every upward step their cold hearts melt a bit more.

Oh how lovely is the picture of their conversion…by the time they near the top, they too have joined the party…the two ‘groups’ long separated by earthly silliness have merged into one…tax collectors and Sunday School teachers, arm-in-arm, two-step and tango their way into heaven while priests and prostitutes salsa and sachet down golden streets.

And, in a final bit of lovely irony, the religious folk realize they have been the thief on the cross all along…their salvation coming finally at the end…their entrance to the beloved community long preceded by those they have lived their lives excluding.

Indeed, lovely is the picture of a Love so true that it leaves no one behind…not even those who have lived their lives leaving others behind.

Spring forward this Sunday!

Sharing from another source.
We’ve been talking about some ideas like, “if you believe yourself to be part of Christ then you can have no sickness, no cancer, no death.”

I think that is a beautiful lie.

I am grateful for the chance to experience the beautiful struggle we call “life.” I’m grateful for the chance to toil and fret for my hour on the stage. Maybe there’s something else after I go. But I don’t think we have to live our lives whistling past the graveyard.

To quote one of my favorite rappers, “And when the soul begins to reap, I think she'll know me from the sleep
I keep caught in the corner of my bloodshot eyes
And if she has the nerve, to let me dump a couple last words
I'm gonna turn to the earth and scream "Love your life!"

When Salvation Rules Don't Apply

Situations where most evangelicals believe God will make exceptions to the normally strict rules for salvation, and let folks into heaven by a provision of Amazing Grace:

1. Aborted babies

2. Children under the "age of accountability" who die from disease, natural disaster, war/violence, accidents, or any other reasons

3. Mentally challenged individuals of any age who don't have the capacity to make an informed decision

4. People in remote areas worldwide who have never heard the "Gospel" preached to them, and know nothing about the historical Jesus

5. People with no access whatsoever to the scriptures in their own language, or who cannot read at all even if they did

___________________________

If the Gospel is expansive enough to reach, touch, and include these examples... and, I believe this is exactly what Spirit does...

maybe we should be humble enough to leave open the possibility that EVERYONE in some unique way is limited in their mental and emotional capacity to accurately experience God's Love, and perhaps Their Grace is far more scandalous and creative and inclusive than most are willing to admit.

God loves the whole world, and
Desires all to know Them.
Nothing can be an eternal barrier to this love.
They keep no record of wrongs,
Their mercy endures forever and
Their Love NEVER fails.

But, there's no need to wait.
Taste and see, God is delicious.
Experience Their Love and Life now.

The Gospel I so happily share is, Jesus loves us so much that he will not leave us lost and doomed in the belief of a mythical god. Jesus shares his mind with us opens a world of relationship with his Father, himself, Holy Spirit and all creation. This new revealed reality impacts our souls with a revelation that we are loved, included, and deeply cherished now, and that our old paradigm left us feeling distanced from the Fathers embrace. He erases our lines of seperation from God and each other.

Grace is not a choice we make, it's our life now......We are born into it.We are New Creations. When Jesus died we died. He took us with Him, in Him, to the cross.....We died with Him, we were buried with Him and we rose again with Him to new life as a New Creation. We were born anew into Grace. Grace is our new dwelling place. He has placed us back in the garden before Adam fell and we now live a new life . He has completely undone Adams sin and we can now eat from the Tree of Life. He has translated us from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of Light.The Kingdom of His Dear Son. Grace is not a choice we make. It's for all mankind to enjoy today.."As in Adam all died. As in Christ all shall be made alive."

Matthew 11:27
All things have been handed over to Me by My Father; and no one fully knows and accurately understands the Son except the Father; and no one fully knows and accurately understands the Father except the Son, and anyone to whom the Son [deliberately] wills to reveal Him.
