The Table of Promise | At the Table with Jesus
Can we BELIEVE what God says is TRUE?
If God PROMISES, then God DELIVERS.
The disciples STRUGGLED to believe God’s promises were TRUE.
Jesus’s question looks FORWARD to their ANSWER and His RESPONSE.
Jesus’s crucifixion is a SCANDAL that SHATTERED their HOPES.
Jesus’s TEACHING prepares the disciples to recognize the REALITY of the RESURRECTION.
How do we URGE Jesus to REMAIN with us?
Compare the first feast of CREATION and the first feast of the RESURRECTION.
Why does Jesus DISAPPEAR? To teach us He is PRESENT always.
The crucifixion SCATTERED. The resurrection RECONCILES.
