\"Creator<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The heavenly Father turned the tables.<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus was buried and after three days, God raised Jesus from the dead. From humanity\u2019s first ancestors to the present, death seems to rule every aspect of the present world. However, Christ overturns the powers in the world that oppose God. Jesus through resurrection defeats death to become the Lord of life. Any who pledge loyalty<\/span><\/strong><\/em> to his will no longer be slaves to fear.<\/span><\/p>\n

God through the resurrection vindicates Jesus and so declares his people righteous. Although we lost face, God in Christ, restores our face. God the Father causes all who are loyal to Christ to come under his name. He thus rebuilds the human family. They are called \u201cChurch<\/strong>.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus cleanses them from corrupting filth. Therefore, God\u2019s Holy Spirit dwells among his people. They are God\u2019s temple, the place where God dwells. Through his Spirit, God changes people\u2019s hearts such that they imitate Christ, giving them freedom to live holy lives. God\u2019s children are regarded with honor as a royal priesthood.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Creator-King turns their view of the world inside out. God commands all people give allegiance to King Jesus, repenting of shameful behaviors and attitudes. Christ\u2019s followers become his ambassadors among all nations. They proclaim, \u201cBe reconciled to God!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Yet, God overturns the world\u2019s standard of honor and shame<\/strong><\/em><\/span>. The world does not understand His people such that many even reject them. What God sees as glorious, the world sees as shameful. What God sees as shameful, the world sees as glorious.<\/span><\/p>\n
