The greatest obstacle blocking us from participating in the new Exodus is our superficial understanding of God
Who are you God? Identify yourself! Friend or foe?
The Invasion that is transforming the Valley of Tears into the Kingdom of God
God launched an invasion into the Valley of Tears (Hail Holy Queen). "Cry 'Havoc!,' and let slip the dogs of war" (Shakespeare). God, however, did not send a military general at the head of an army bristling with weapons into the Valley of Tears to wage war against the infidels (Matthew 26:53). He sent something more powerful than an army (Isaiah 55:8-9). Instead of an army, He sent a Love Note.

Forgiveness versus the Evil that we did to him
Upon What Rock do the Wise Anchor their Understanding of God?
Whenever you fall into confusion - whenever you become disoriented - whenever you lose your way - whenever your understanding of God becomes cloudy, find your footing on the road from the Crucifixion to the Resurrection. Stability in our understanding of God is found on the road from the Crucifixion to the Resurrection. Regain your balance by returning to the foundation upon which the edifice of Christianity is built. Return to the rock that the builders rejected (Matthew 21:42) .

More and Better Theology
More and better theology is discovered on the road from the Crucifixion to the Resurrection (1 Corinthians 1:17) than in the head of every apologist, theologian, Doctor of the Church, monk, abbot, mystic, priest, monsignor, bishop, Cardinal, Pope, hermit and saint who has ever lived or will ever live.
The bombshell of revelation exploded when Jesus and the evil we did to him met in violent collision on the road from the Crucifixion to the Resurrection. The payload of the revelation was a high fidelity representation of the reality of God. The incandescence of the violent collision illuminated darkness of our understanding of God in a glorious burst of epiphany.
