"Through Christ you are believers in God, who raised him from the dead," 1 Peter 1:21.
Yes, God did. So our faith and hope are in that same (one and only) God. So we call God father. And we know God judges each person impartially in keeping with their deeds. And we know we have been ransomed from pointless lives. Ransomed by Jesus' priceless blood. In obedience to God's truth we purified ourselves. That is, God's living and abiding word birthed us anew. So now what? Ransomed and purified, we yield deep love toward one another. Because our holy God calls us to live holy.
We meet with a brother or sister today and speak of Jesus' ransom. And, together, we express thankful faith and hope in God's eternal promise. Sky kingdom.
