Justice and Mercy
Apr 5, 2020 • Andy Adams • Just Easter
Palm Sunday. Upon Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem, people celebrated the arrival of a just king to free them from oppression. But, by the time of his trial, Jesus was the oppressed.
As we enter into Passion week, beginning with Palm Sunday, we remember Jesus’ willingness to be treated unjustly so that we can receive the transforming grace of God. Now we do justice because we have received mercy and see Jesus in everyone.
