A Resurrection People
You may be surprised that I chose this passage from Paul’s letter to the Romans from today’s lectionary readings. Paul is not the most sympathetic character in the New Testament, and he often gets a bad rap in progressive theology circles. But I have gained some sympathy for Paul over the years, and I think that some of his writings are worth redeeming. Particularly in this case, where I happen to agree with the point he is trying to make.
