 Luke 23:33-43 “The Jesus of our story understood where his actions of standing in solidarity with the marginalized and oppressed could lead. And he had the courage to stand in that solidarity anyway. As certain other religions of indigenous and marginalized populations do, the resurrection narrative also places Diety squarely on the side of the oppressed. This has deep ramifications for Christians who choose to engage in justice work today. When understood in the context of Empire, the cross calls us to rethink Jesus’ death as political execution. Juxtaposing the crucifixion and unjust power structures pulls back the veil and reveals Jesus’ death in its political context. It calls us as Jesus followers to insurrection ourselves, as we interpret the death of Jesus as political resistance. Jesus was executed by the state. Could the cross have been political execution rather than sacrifice? Reframing the crucifixion in its context shows it to be Rome’s political act, not God’s substitutionary plan. And in this light, the politics of Jesus’ death go far beyond heavenly bookkeeping. Revisiting Calvary as political execution leads us to a place where faith meets empire and we begin to understand Jesus’ life and teachings as a call to participate in resistance to unjust systems that weaponize and wield death today.” For more go to renewedheartministries.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
