In a few weeks, a new version of the hit Broadway musical “West Side Story” will be released.
The play is based on the Shakespearean play, “Romeo and Juliet.”
In the play, Juliet meets Romeo as she looks down from her balcony.
In the now iconic scene Romeo, who has the last name Montague, is unable to be with the beautiful Juliet because her last name is Capulet.
The two families would never allow intermarriage because they hate each other so much.
In the balcony scene Juliet tells Romeo that it is only his name that is her enemy.
If his last name were different, she could be with him.
Or, maybe she could refuse the name Capulet.
O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name;
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
And I'll no longer be a Capulet.
Juliet muses further
What's in a name?
That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet;
Juliet’s question is one I often ponder as does the rest of the world.
Capulet and Montague, Hatfield and McCoy, Your last name and their last name; this has been the way the world operates for eons.
The good ones (AKA us) vs. the bad ones (AKA them) all separated by a race, religion, creed, or yes, a last name.
Incredibly, into this cycle of anger, revenge, hatred, hostility, comes hope.
And the fulfilment of that prophecy is where believers find lasting hope
Hope Has A Prelude
Creation Began The Journey of Hope
time begins with creation
humanity begins with creation
hope begins with creation
Creation Brings The Reward of Hope
people who exercise faith are rewarded for their faith
faith is not a one and done idea
faith spawns action as we shall see
Creation Begs The Cognition of Hope
understanding comes from faith
this is why Christians simply believe God created
It is not that we lack questions
it is that we believe God did what he said (incidentally mark your calendars for Sunday February 6th as we will talk about creation)
Creation by God and our faith go hand in hand
Hope Has A Promise
The Promise Is Residual
Cain’s righteous gift still speaks to people about God’s faithful use of the faithful
The Promise Is Reasonable
only by believing the promise can someone hope to understand how God rewards those who seek him
The Promise Is Rescuing
Like Noah, God’s people can expect that God will save His people
Hope Has A People
Hope’s People Follow
Like Abraham, the people who hope in God follow him by faith
Hope’s People Find
The people find the promised land, not in soil or boundaries on earth but in the kingdom “whose designer and builder is God.”
Hope’s People Flourish
Abraham’s seed are all who believe the gospel
Hope Has A Place
Hope’s Place Is Foreign But Home
Hope’s Place Is Future But Now
Hope Has A Person
There is a name I love to hear I love to sing its worth It sounds like music in my ear The sweetest name on earth O how I love Jesus O how I love Jesus O how I love Jesus Because He first loved me
Hope’s Person Is The Promise
Hope’s Person Is The Provision
Hope’s Person Is The Preserver
Hope Has A Name
The name is not just a 5 letter Americanized word ‘Jesus’
