The Finished Work

Mary and I have been working on getting ready for our trip on Tuesday, but today is a time of rest. We are hoping you are having a time of rest and Christian fellowship, too. This is not about achieving righteousness through legalism. It is about enjoying God and His myriad works of great excellence. We take time to let God's great work of creation become the object of your praise, as well as His work in presenting to us the unique Theanthropic Being, Jesus the Messiah, Lord of All. He finished his work on the cross, making satisfaction for our culpable and evil acts, and sat down on high at the right hand of the Father. He is governing in all matters, great and small, for the joy of the Father, his elect angels and the blood-washed church. We are right in celebrating that wonderful and also mysterious victory.
