Everything Changes: Creed Series - Tim Knipp (1 Cor. 15:1-3)

Pontius Pilate:
infamous judge,
frozen in time,
known only and
always
for the worst
he's ever done.
Provable fact:
crucifixion - death -
resurrection.

Political ground-breaking
and celebratory news
is transacted
from one
to many.
Christ's death and resurrection
(eye witnessed
and verifiable) 
is not about me,
contrary to 
Gospel Tracts, Inc.

Father-warrior God
has retaken territory
previously ceded to Satan
through sending
His messiah-king
to defeat death
once and for all.
Long-awaited,
this promised King
ticked off all the boxes
on the list of 
requirements,
including and especially
surrendering 
His life. 

As Conquering Hero,
He invites us to join
the winning side,
become a Kingdom citizen,
and live 
as such.

Everything 
changes.

As Christ was a factual
entity on earth,
so we live out 
His mission here
in tangible ways.
Each word,
each action or 
non-action
echoes 
who we follow.

Researched, 
cited sources and all,
this historical event,
this Fact,
changes
everything.
