 Jesus is the king of hearts. He wants our free decision to search him, to find him, to come to him. He is the king of love. He is the king of trust. He is the Lord of free beings, who love him deeply and follow him by heart. Nothing less is the kindom of heaven. It is a kingdom where the lamb is Lord. The lamb - it is the old image for the ultimate sacrifice. Blood given for the sin of the world. Death at the cross, publically displayed. Sin is judged. Evil cannot prevail. Love wins, practical and deep love.  Jesus is the king of hearts. He wants our free decision to search him, to find him, to come to him. He is the king of love. He is the king of trust.

-Jesus lived in an interesting time of world history. Technology to produce general had been developed already, and it was possible to distribute texts by scrolls and parchment. Yet, he did not write himself. People wrote down what he taught orally. His disciples reported his case. This is another deep and important observation. The word of God stayed a word, which was put into written form by his disciples, by the church, by the spirit. +Jesus lived in an interesting time of world history. Technology to replicate texts on parchment by manual work had been developed already, and it was possible to distribute texts by scrolls and codices of papyrus. Yet, Jesus did not write himself. People wrote down what he taught orally. His disciples reported his case. This is another deep and important observation. The word of God stayed a word, which was put into written form by his disciples, by the church, by the spirit. 
  
 The Christian message and the events around the resurrection are the most fascinating and inspiring words I have ever read and heard. And the story of the lamb, of the son of God who is changing the human mind and the human heart, remains the centre point of the universe.  The Christian message and the events around the resurrection are the most fascinating and inspiring words I have ever read and heard.
