Love without exception
Ouch! Jesus straightens out our understanding of God’s Law, and our shallow physical obedience is pitiful in light of the fuller application of the Law by the Judge who looks on the heart. We need His mercy even when we try showing mercy.

Christ fulfilled the Law fully
Jesus next prepares His disciples for a new perspective on the Law as He corrects their view of what righteousness looks like and where it comes from. Christ fulfilled true righteousness because self-righteousness doesn’t meet God’s approval.

Christmas story told by Apostle Paul
The Apostle Paul knew the Christmas story (after all, his bff was Luke who tells us much of the Christmas story). But in his letter to the Galatian believers, Paul was more concerned with the significance of the Incarnation than the rest of the characters in the nativity set.

Lazarus – you will rise!
Christ is our High Priest. But this is not a passive role for the Lord. This Priest is also our Warrior-King. And the Warrior-King is putting Death on notice that the Resurrection and the Life has power over death and the grave. Jesus reveals the power and the glory of God.

Mary – will you love Him?
Jesus loved Martha, Mary, and Lazarus. But doesn’t He love everyone? This family enjoyed a closeness with Immanuel that few others enjoyed. Even as He allows them to walk through the valley of the shadow of death, He still cares for them, deeply. But will you still love Him?
John 11:28-36.

Martha – will you believe?
Christ our High Priest ministers to us even in our darkest days. As Martha struggled in the loss of her brother, Jesus nurtured her faith to remember what she already knew. When the pain is great, will you still believe?
