Pangs Have Been Loosed

"[T]his Jesus, delivered up according to the definite plan and foreknowledge of God, you crucified and killed by the hands of lawless men. God raised him up, loosing the pangs of death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it." -Acts 2:23–24  This is part of the defining sermon at the foundation of the church.

These words of Peter are true, and because what he describes happened, we are forever changed and empowered to live.

Lomas does a masterful job of presenting the important reality of our true identity in Christ - the thing that is truest about us. It is not the things we do or the desires we have that define us but instead the gospel truth of our standing in Jesus that gives us identity. The book is a quick and comforting read and Lomas
