Saturdays Are For Shalom
This week’s post is an article that points us to life in the Kingdom…
In a recent article in Christianity Today, Al Hsu discusses the Apostle Paul’s greeting of “Grace and peace” and how a simple salutation points us toward a new society.
I liked this quote in particular:
So Paul said, “Grace and peace to you.” Paul addressed Gentile and Jewish believers together, as members of one body. He wrote in continuity with their cultural and ethnic backgrounds, yet pointed to a new, countercultural reality. He combined a Greek greeting and a Hebrew greeting to create a distinctively Christian greeting.
(H.T. Tullian)
