Wouldn’t it be nice if life for the Christian was a smooth sailing life of smiles, $$$$ and laughs? There are some Christian churches that preach this type of “glory” theology. Do the right thing and God will reward you with few if any difficulties (crosses), good health and even better finances.
In this Sunday’s readings, God’s Word pokes HUGE holes in that kind of theology. Jesus tells us we are going to face a lifetime of crosses (struggles and groans), just like he did. And for those who hold to him by faith, they will receive a crown of life (the glory in heaven), just like our ascended Lord did.
