Dying to Live Pt. 2.
Manage episode 487789726 series 3666871
Jesus is praying the Lord’s Prayer, also known as the Priestly Prayer, on the evening He will be arrested and ultimately crucified. Specifically, Jesus prayed that His followers be one the same way He and The Father are one. The words of Jesus are mysterious, yet the most beautiful and life-giving words ever spoken. The way we view our union with Christ ultimately determines the way we understand salvation. Because of Christ, we are not just individuals; we are united to Him, and through Him, we are united to one another. We are not with Him as individuals; we come into a collective society. In a world that is increasingly becoming more selfish and self-centered, and where the three most important people are me, myself, and I, we can invite the people on our FRANC List (Friends, Relatives, Acquaintances, Neighbors, Classmates, and Coworkers) into His Church where what we offer is contextualized to the places we live, work, learn, and play all because of the risen and living Jesus.
