"The Devil Made Me Do It" - Rethinking Evil and Sin
(Week 6) Kenosis: Evil Re-imagined
Question: How can I find the peace and joy I long for?
Scripture: Philippians 2:5-11
"Have among yourselves the same attitude that is also yours in Christ Jesus,
Who, though he was in the form of God,
did not regard equality with God something to be grasped.
Rather, he emptied himself,
taking the form of a slave,
coming in human likeness;
and found human in appearance,
he humbled himself,
becoming obedient to death,
even death on a cross.
Because of this, God greatly exalted him
and bestowed on him the name
that is above every name,
that at the name of Jesus
every knee should bend,
of those in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue confess that
Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father."
Description:
The meaning we give to our world is laced through with fear. We are promised the consolation and the power of the Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead. But there is a price. We must be willing to turn away from our old ideas and accept a new set of core values. Are we up to the challenge?
