Burying The Past

Burying The Past

 

I used the word "burying" in the present tense because that's what we will be

doing today. Bury = To completely cover; cause to disappear, final

disposition. I've done a lot of funerals in my life and the grave site is usually the hardest part, saying goodbye to someone we love. As Christians, we have a natural body but are Spiritual beings therefore we will have to deal with natural things but in a spiritual way. Throughout the old testament, God's people dealt with sin through the sacrifices of animals, but that only pushed back or was a temporary fix for sin until the coming of the Messiah - Jesus.

Today through the Cross of Christ we live under the 'New Covenant", a better Covenant, a perfect Covenant, an everlasting Covenant, one that paid for all of our past, present, and future sins once and for all! It's our choice as to how we will live in the future but to have the abundant life Jesus paid for us to have we must completely let go of and bury our past! Are you ready to experience the beauty of a resurrected life?
