Sermon from Cracker Barrel and the Parking Lot

Sometimes, we has human beings think that because we have had dirty, filthy rag lives, caused by our own sin and shame, that this is how Jesus left us.

Jesus' death on the cross and subsequent empty tomb occurrance, we are not left as filthy rags. We are not left as ones rejected. We are fully accepted in Christ, through Christ, and because of Christ.

I need no other one, thing, or hope, except to realize that Jesus loved and loves me, and he died for me, and to accept his love for me. And this is, in totality, the completeness that I need. .. No one else completes me and makes me whole except Jesus. No other thing. No other. Period. Nothing less, nothing more.
