Season 12 Episode 39
Time to Bury the Past
“Therefore we were buried with him by baptism into death, so that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.” - Romans 6:4
Some of us, like Paul himself, have done some bad things, shameful things, things people will forever hold against us and we hold against ourselves.
Some of us are on a bad road. Maybe we initially chose it. Maybe we were pulled and drugged onto it. Maybe we were born into a place and have known no other life.
The message of Good Friday is this: our pasts no longer gets to dictate what we do today or who we become tomorrow.
Before we get to the new life, we have to bury the old one. It means leaving behind the toxic relationships and environments.
It means breaking and burying our negative patterns of anger driven, fear driven, lust driven, greed driven, envy, resentment, and bitterness driven behavior.
We allow God to raise us up as we learn to walk in the newness of life.
