Further Adventures of Jeff Doles

We are in Christ not by anything we have done, not even by our faith, but through the Incarnation of Christ.

In Jesus Christ, all humankind is put right with God.

Though the God of Creation is fundamentally different from Creation,

yet through the Incarnation, God has become part of His Creation,

to suffer with Creation in a way that is completely redemptive.

God can take the worst our broken humanity has to offer

and turn it to profound healing and blessing.

Behold the Cross.

Faith in Jesus, who is The Way,

looks like following.

Faith in God, who is love, looks like love.

When we hold on to bitterness, we leave no room for God’s peace. Forgive.
