1 Peter 4:12-14; 5:6-11
To say “No,” to the demands and needs of the empires of the world is no easy task because the empires of our world desperately depend on your “yes” and allegiance. And they, like the Devil tempting Jesus in the Wilderness, will offer us power and influence in exchange for our allegiance.
If Jesus is Lord of all Creation, then Dr. Stanley Hauerwas is correct in his assertion that everything else is...
Everything is the empires of the world.
Everything is religiosity, the should and musts we attempt to attach to the good of the Good News of Christ’s redemption of all Creation; once for all.
Everything is anything that distracts us from God's salvific and amazing grace in Jesus Christ.
