The Ultimate Cover-Up
In our world, a "cover-up" is a scandal. It is a desperate attempt to hide the truth, bury the evidence, and escape the consequences of wrongdoing. When the truth finally comes out, reputations are ruined. As we gather today, we must admit that we all have things we would rather keep hidden. We constantly try to cover up our daily failures and secret sins from God and from each other. But the Almighty sees it all; His holy Law exposes our deepest secrets. Yet, in Romans 4, the Apostle Paul points us to a completely different kind of cover-up. It is a divine action that leads not to judgment, but to absolute peace. Today, we prepare our hearts for "The Ultimate Cover-Up."
