Sovereignty; Power of God; Angels; Authority; Resurrection PowerActs 17:22-31, 1 Peter 3:15-22, John 14:15-21The power of the Resurrection tells the story. St. Peter reminds us that the Holy Spirit “”_saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ, 22who has gone into heaven and is at God’s right hand–with angels, authorities and powers in submission to him.” Angels, authorities, and powers, oh my! (I have a weird imagination sometimes, and I pictured Dorothy making her way through the dark forest, chanting “Angels, authorities and powers, oh my!” and then her encounter with the great and terrible wizard!) It may seem a silly illustration, but aren’t we just as mystified, and perhaps even fearful, as we consider a God so powerful that all other spiritual beings and powers on earth come under His authority?
