Lies.

"Nobody's wise until they see how it lies."

If the devil tells you to lie the chances are he is lying to you in the first place!

Greed.

Money is the root of all evil.

And greed is the yeast that ferments it.

Materialism.

Materialism is the way of the world.

But Jesus said: "'The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify against it that its works are evil.'" John 7:7 (NRSV)

Living Stones.

"and like living stones, let yourselves be built into a spiritual house." 1 Peter 2:4 (NRSV)

We are the living stones of God's House.

And so, even if there is no church, no building, God's house will still exist in us.

Resurrection!

Three days after he was crucified Jesus was resurrected!

And this gives us hope that there is life after death.

Death is not the end.

Our souls are resurrected in spirit.

And we return to our maker.

To be enclosed in the Love of God.

That is Heaven.

Amen.
