Upside-Down Savior - Pastor Nathan Nass

The incredible story of God's upside-down grace to us in Jesus Christ.

There is something upside-down about Jesus. In our world, it’s always a fight to get to the top. If life is like a pyramid, everyone wants to get to the top, and it doesn’t seem to matter how many people get squashed along the way. 

But there is something upside-down about Jesus. He takes the pyramid that everyone is trying to get to the top of, and he flips it upside-down. In inexplicable grace, he put himself on the bottom. He left heaven to come as our Savior to earth. He humbled himself below everyone else and died the death we deserve on the cross for our sins. Who does that? There’s something upside-down about Jesus!

That’s where you and I come in: Jesus did all of that for us! Perfect Jesus was punished so that we sinners are forgiven? That’s upside-down. That’s Jesus! When he rose from the dead, he opened heaven to you and me. Life in the face of death? That’s Jesus - our Upside-Down Savior!
