About this listen

Perhaps we can summarize it this way: with the Lord Jesus’ command to Peter, “Arise, kill and eat,” He directs Peter to live out the new life in Christ. The life that is no longer determined by the Law. The life that is not a matter of how much righteousness one achieve on one’s own, but the life that is the life of Jesus Christ . . . the Lord who was crucified, died, and was buried . . . and with whom our own efforts at making ourselves pleasing to God, with whom the notion that God’s love and grace was intended only for a few, select people, with whom our own sin, was crucified, died, and was buried as well. With all that dead and buried with Christ in the grave, what was left when Christ arose from the dead but to grant the new life that is governed by none of that instead?
