As the VL Music Department embarked on their recent Lenten tour they shared the message of Crowns.
The Crown of Creation – human beings, made in God’s image and given dominion over the world, but now fallen and groaning under the curse.
The Crown of Thorns – the iconic image of the crucifixion, signifying Christ’s ultimate humility, where he traded in His heavenly crown for a lowly crown of suffering and shame, for us and for our salvation.
The Crowns of Victory, Sovereignty, and Glory – worn by Christ as he now reigns as King of kings and Lord of lords, as the one who has conquered death, sin, and Satan for us.
And the Crowns of Salvation & Eternal Life – now ours through faith in Christ’s atoning act.
Thank you to all who joined us on this Lenten journey. May your continued walk to the cross and empty tomb be blessed!
