This link has a very interesting post this morning: markdroberts.com. Mark D. Roberts is a "godblogger", like me. The difference between us is that he has a lot of theological education, is ordained, has his own local church, and is famous. He can also write, but let's not go there. Mark writes about the Nicene Creed that unifies Christians. He mentions that Mary and Pilate are the only human beings mentioned in our creed, and that Mary's purity is offset by Pilate's corruption. He writes that our Protestant reserve with respect to Mary is tempered by our understanding that her status and honored place highlight the humaness of Jesus fully, pointing our worship to his sanctifying grace and our salvation. He was finishing a series of posts on the role of Mary in the church. Peruse them if you've the time.

In continuity from my last post here, let me state the obvious: He is Risen! Hallelujah! I hope you had the wonderful Easter morning that this fact deserves from us, every year and every day.

This, again, is the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it.
