(Missioncast All Saints’ Day) We Fix Our Eyes Upon Jesus (Psalm 119:6; Luke 8:15) (Sanctification)
Jeff and Mim discuss that Jesus is the fulfillment of the Law. In Christ, there is no condemnation for all who believe. So, we fix on eyes upon Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith. They also consider the missional implications of these texts. All Saints Day is not only a time of commemorating the saints who have gone before us, but also to envision future saints yet to join the great crowd of witnesses. The fields are ripe unto harvest. It is our joy to sow God’s word to present and future generations. Mim tells stories from her recent visitations in churches to raise “mission consciousness” and “mission zeal.” Jeff retells the story of the Good Samaritan from the aspect of Jesus’ question: “Who was the good neighbor?” May we be good neighbors to the world with Christ’s love, mercy, grace, and compassion.
