This issue of TBD is easy: Easter Sunday. For the christian, Easter reminds us of the best day ever. It reminds us that Jesus has conquered death. It reminds us that our wretched sins are indeed forgiven and atoned for. Overcoming death is the great proof Jesus gives us that all he said was true: he loves us deeply, he took the wrath of God in our place, has given us his righteousness, and has prepared a place for us after we die.
It is true. It is good. It is beautiful. Indeed the Gospel - the good news that though we are sinners, Jesus died to take that wrath on himself, and that mercy is to all who believe - is the core of Christianity, and is at the core of my life.
