Happy Easter!

Captain Sensible writes: Just to wish everyone a very Happy Easter!
It's good to be happy today. Some days are like that of course - very happy or very sad. Most are somewhere in between.
The other night there was a brilliant full moon. But it was also a partly cloudy, and windy night. So the brilliance was sometimes masked by thin cloud, making all the light dim for a few seconds. Then it would be obscured by quite a dark cloud, and everything appeared very black. But that too would pass, and the brilliance was again revealed. The brilliance was there all along of course, it's just that it was difficult to see at certain times.
Thank God that we have that brilliant light, that has overcome the darkest of clouds. So even when we are experiencing a dark cloud, we have the assurance that the brilliance is still there. And even that brilliance, we "see through a glass, darkly".
So, thank you Lord Jesus Christ, and Happy Easter everyone!

He is risen indeed.

May the cross's reconciliatory power be manifest among the Lord's people.

Ted, don't forget Paul and Barnabas had such a "sharp disagreement" that they had to part company. And remember Paul's open rebuke of Peter "because he was clearly in the wrong".
Clearly, we should strive for unity, and to this end, I repeat my willingness for mediation through the mutually-respected Pastor I wrote to you about.
Your reluctance to do this, and your recent actions and account of the situation, only add to my confusion over your intentions regarding "reconciliation".
