Experimental Theology: Becoming the Jubilee
“All this makes sense if Jesus is, in his very person, the Jubilee. Forgiveness—releasing those in debt—is what the Jubilee was all about. To experience the Jubilee is to have your debts forgiven. And that’s what Jesus did wherever he went. He brought the Jubilee. Jesus was the Jubilee.
And not just any Jubilee—it was and is the last, greatest and final Jubilee. The seventy times seven Jubilee.
And what is extraordinary about all this is that Jesus invites Peter—and you and I—to become the Jubilee as well.”
