Christ is Beauty

“One thing I ask from the LORD, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.” (Psalm 27:4)

Beauty, Truth, and Goodness Incarnate

 

Evil is But the Lack of the Good

 

The Revelation of Glory Requires No Evil

The manifestation of evil 

is not in any way necessary 

for the glory and goodness of God 

to be revealed.

No Rightful Place

Neither death nor evil nor sin have any purpose, any rightful place in God's creation. They are imposters, detracting from life and good and wholeness. But their power has been broken at the Cross, where they were shown to be the frauds they are, and they are destined for destruction.

Do Good and Leave the Results to God

Do good and leave the results to God 

who knows how to redeem 

every situation.

Overcome Evil with Good

We do not overcome evil with evil ~

or even with the lesser of two evils. 

We overcome evil with good.
