Capon: to raise the dead
Feast of Chad, Abbot of Lastingham, Bishop of Lichfield, Missionary, 672
Meditation:
By his power God raised the Lord from the dead, and he will raise us also.—1 Corinthians 6:14 (NIV)
Quotation:
Jesus came to raise the dead. Not to repair the repairable, correct the correctable, or improve the improvable. Just to raise the dead, and nobody but the dead. Nothing is all he needs for anything.... Robert Farrar Capon (1925-2013), The Foolishness of Preaching, Grand Rapids, MI: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing, 1997, p. 25
