“The gospel of Jesus is not a rational concept to be explained in a theory of salvation, but a story about God’s presence in Jesus’ solidarity with the oppressed, which led to his death on the cross. What is redemptive is the faith that God snatches victory out of defeat, life out of death, and hope out of despair.” - James H. Cone

The Caesars of this world claim that they have received the favor of God. Some of them even claim to be God’s anointed. They rationalize the exploitative and unjust systems as ordained by God.

The story of Jesus on the cross rejects this self serving narrative. God shows up in the lives of the forsaken and marginalized. The powerful of the resurrection in our lives snatches victory from defeat.

“The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God raised Christ Jesus from the dead, he will give life to your mortal bodies by this same Spirit living within you.” (Romans 8:11)

That same power lives in us. Therefore we have hope.
