Activities planned for this weekend By Sarah Hawley After record losses, Ohio job claims high but still dropping COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — More than 34,000 Ohioans filed unemployment claims during the last week of May, the state reported Thursday. That’s the lowest figure since Ohio’s stay-at-home orders depressed the economy and led to widespread layoffs. The claims are still among the highest on record in the state over the past few decades, according to the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services. The 34,575 claims filed for the week ending May 30 are down from about 46,000 claims filed the previous week. Weekly claims haven’t been that high since late 2008 during the Great Recession. The numbers announced Thursday pushed total unemployment claims during the coronavirus pandemic to 1.29 million, above the total number of claims over the past three years. The state says it has now distributed more than $3.5 billion to more than 6,000 unemployment claimants, close to what was paid out in both 2009 and 2010 during the recession. Nationally, nearly 1.9 million Americans applied for unemployment benefits last week, bringing the running total since the shutdowns took hold in mid-March to more than 42 million, the government said Thursday. Testing Increased testing in Ohio isn’t turning up more positive coronavirus cases, The Columbus Dispatch reported. The paper says more than nine of every 10 people have tested negative in the past 40 days. State officials and medical experts say they are encouraged by Ohio’s efforts to reduce the spread of the virus but caution it’s too soon to celebrate. “We can’t let our guard down,” Dr. Bruce Vanderhoff, chief medical officer for OhioHealth, told the paper. As of Memorial day, 340,000 tests had been administered since record-keeping began by the state on March 4, according to information obtained by the Dispatch from the Department of Health through a records request.

By Steve Karnowski Associated Press MINNEAPOLIS — A judge set bail at $750,000 apiece Thursday for three fired Minneapolis police officers charged with aiding and abetting in the killing of George Floyd, as a memorial service took place just blocks away. Tou Thao, Thomas Lane and J. Alexander Kueng made their first appearances in Hennepin County District Court as friends, relatives and celebrities gathered to memorialize Floyd at a nearby Bible college. The Minneapolis Police Department fired them last week, along with Derek Chauvin, who is charged with second-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter in Floyd’s May 25 death. Widely seen bystander video shows the white police officer pressing his knee into Floyd’s neck, ignoring the African American man’s pleas that he can’t breathe, until he stops moving. Defense attorneys argued for lower bail. Attorney Earl Gray, representing Lane, told the court that Chauvin was the senior officer on the scene and that when Floyd died it was only Lane’s fourth day on the job. It was also Kueng’s fourth day as an officer. Gray said all Lane did GALLIA, MEIGS BRIEFS Editor’s Note: Gallia Meigs Briefs will only list event information that is open to the public and will be printed on a space-available basis.

They have been charged with aiding and abetting Derek Chauvin, who is charged with second-degree murder of George Floyd, a black man who died after being restrained by the Minneapolis police officers on May 25. was to hold Floyd’s feet so he couldn’t kick. He also pointed out that the complaint says Lane asked Chauvin twice if they should roll Floyd over and expressed concern that Gray might be in delirium. The attorney said Lane performed CPR in the ambulance. “What was my client supposed to do but follow what his training officer said? Is that aiding and abetting a crime?” Gray asked. Attorneys for Kueng and Thao did not address the merits of the charges in court and told reporters afterward that they declined to comment on the case for now out of respect for Floyd’s family on the day of his first memorial service. Defendants don’t nor- mally enter pleas during their first appearances in Minnesota courts, which tend to be brief proceedings. Judge Paul Scoggin set their next court dates for June 29. Gray said he plans to renew his arguments for lower bail then, saying it could take more than a year for Lane’s case to go to trial. If convicted, Chauvin faces a maximum of 40 years in prison on the murder count and 10 years for manslaughter. Under Minnesota law, aiding and abetting second-degree murder is tantamount a seconddegree murder charge, so Thao, Lane and Kueng face the same potential penalties as Chauvin if convicted. A date for Chauvin’s first court appearance has not been set. He was arrested May 29. The latest criminal complaint against him says his actions were a “substantial causal factor in Mr. Floyd losing consciousness, constituting substantial bodily harm, and Mr. Floyd’s death as well.” The narratives in the other three complaints are almost identical to the one against Chauvin. The complaint against Lane, 37, notes that he asked twice about rolling Floyd on his side and wondered about delirium, but went on to say that Lane “took no actions to assist Mr. Floyd, to change his position, or to reduce the force the officers were using against Mr. Floyd.” IN BRIEF Judge rejects Ponzi king Madoff ’s bid for early release U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, noted the continuing suffering of Madoff’s thousands of victims who lost $17.5 billion when a decades-long scheme that deceived them into thinking their money was investNEW YORK (AP) — A dying Ponzi king Bernard ed properly was exposed in December 2008. “I also believe that Mr. Madoff was never truly Madoff lost his bid for early release from prison Thursday when the judge who sentenced him to 150 remorseful, and that he was only sorry that his life as he knew it was collapsing around him.

(AP) — A Powerball ticket worth more than $136 million has been sold in West Virginia, lottery officials said Thursday. It was the only winning ticket in the country to match all six numbers drawn Wednesday night: 1-3-26-41-64 and a Powerball of 17, West Virginia Lottery officials said in a statement. The ticket was sold at Go Mart #93 in Hinton, which will receive a $100,000 sales bonus. “Congratulations to the winner or winners of this incredible jackpot,” West Virginia Lottery Director John Myers said. The winner can either take the annuitized grand prize of $136.4 million paid out over 29 years or the cash option of $108 million, officials said. The Powerball jackpot for Saturday’s drawing resets to $20 million. It is the ninth grand-prize Powerball ticket sold in West Virginia and the first in a decade. W. Randy Smith, a former Berkeley County sheriff and magistrate, won a $79 million Powerball jackpot in 2010. He chose the $44 million cash option and pocketed $30 million after taxes. Among the other jackpot winners was Jack Whittaker, a West Virginia contractor who won a nearly $315 million Powerball jackpot in 2002. At the time it was the largest U.S. lottery jackpot won by a single ticket. Whittaker quickly fell victim to scandals, lawsuits and personal setbacks.

Campaign From page 1 Durst said the campaign will run through the month of June. The press release sent from Square One states “This money will be used to help in preparing our facility to be opened.” “We’re working as hard as we can to get the shelter side open as quickly as possible,” Durst said. “We know that the need is great. Especially with the pandemic.” Durst said the shelter is not open yet, but said the hope is to have it ready by October. “Our shelter is not open, but we are still helping victims through Square One,” Durst said. “There are different services we can offer.” The center provides services to help stop the spread of substance use, homelessness and domestic violence. The press release said that donations can be made by individuals or by groups to select an envelope and fill it with the given amount. Durst said that Square One was in line to get state funding, but due to the pandemic, the shelter is not expecting to receive that funding now. To select an envelope, contact Square One at (740) 441-5809, reach out to the Square One Facebook page or email squareonegjm@gmail.com. © 2020 Ohio Valley Publishing, all rights reserved.

Trump had urged governors to call out the National Guard to contain protests that turned violent and warned that he could send in active duty military forces if they did not. Esper angered Trump when he said he opposed using military troops for law enforcement, seemingly taking the teeth out of the president’s threat to use the Insurrection Act. Esper said the 1807 law should be invoked “only in the most urgent and dire of situations.” He added, “We are not in one of those situations now.” After Esper’s visit to the White House, the Pentagon abruptly overturned an earlier decision to send a couple hundred activeduty soldiers home from the Washington, D.C., region, a public sign of the growing tensions with the White House. That reversal was reversed on Thursday. GALLIA, MEIGS CALENDAR OF EVENTS Editor’s Note: The Daily Sentinel and Gallipolis Daily Tribune appreciate your input to the community calendar.

NASCAR is set to return to the track in 2021. Nashville Superspeedway will hold a Cup race for the first time next season. It ends NASCAR’s decade-long drought at the track. its geographic schedule. There was little appetite among race fans for two NASCAR weekends at Dover International Speedway — noted by the seating capacity of roughly 135,000 seats in 2001 stripped to about 55,000 this season — which cushioned the blow of moving the race to Nashville. So it’s off to Music City, where NASCAR wants to hit the right notes. The Nashville area appears ready to go racing. The stock series staged a wildly successful blowout last December for its season-ending awards celebration. Drivers performed burnouts on Broadway, NASCAR fan and country music star Blake Shelton was the star of a party and — step aside, Randy Travis — there was a NASCARthemed night at the Grand Ole Opry. “We need to make sure that we match the expectations of the industry and the Nashville com- munity with what we do with the facility and how we operate,” Dover track president Mike Tatoian told The Associated Press. The TV numbers also showed there was a demand for NASCAR in Nashville. Fox Sports said Nashville ranks as the 14th-best TV market this season and was 14th as well in 2018, a solid showing for a sport that has suffered ratings declines over the last decade.

The teams that will be going to the ESPN Wide World Of Sports complex on the Disney campus near Orlando, Florida, would play eight games to determine playoff seeding starting around July 31 before the postseason begins, according to the person who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity Wednesday because the league has not released its proposal publicly. The plan, once approved, would have 13 Western Conference teams and nine Eastern Conference teams going to Disney, and the cutoff being that teams must be within six games of a playoff spot at this point. Playoffs would start in See NBA | 9 OVP SPORTS BRIEFS Rio hosting Jim Marshall Memorial golf outing JACKSON, Ohio — The Veterans Association at the University of Rio Grande will host their 3rd annual Jim Marshall Memorial Golf Tournament on Saturday, Sept. 5, at Franklin Valley Golf Course in Jackson County.

Rio Grande cancels all summer camps RIO GRANDE, Ohio — The University of Rio Grande has announced the cancellation of its entire 2020 summer camp schedule due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The cancellations include all athletic camps, as well as all sessions of band camps. The school has also announced its schedule for summer courses. Term No. 1, which will be online only, is set for June 1-July 3. Term No. 2, which will see the return on face-toface instruction, will take place July 6-Aug. 7. School officials have also announced that the start date of the 2020-21 Fall Term has been moved back one week to Monday, Aug. 31. For more information, visit www.rio.edu Charles Rex Arbogast | AP file Major League Baseball has rejected the players’ offer for a 114-game regular season in the pandemic-delayed season with no additional salary cuts. Management has said it will discuss a schedule of about 50 games, which would result in players receiving about 30% of their full salaries under the deal for prorated pay the union agreed to in March. MLB rejects 114-game schedule NEW YORK (AP) — If Major League Baseball and its players take the field for a coronanvirusdelayed 2020 season, it will be after acrimonious negotiations that resemble their labor war of a generation ago. MLB rejected the players’ proposal for a 114game regular season with no additional salary cuts, and will turn its attention to a shortened slate of perhaps 50 games or fewer. Owners last week proposed an 82-game schedule starting in early July. “We do not have any reason to believe that a negotiated solution for an 82-game season is possible,” Deputy Commissioner Dan Halem wrote in a letter Wednesday to chief union negotiator Bruce Meyer that was obtained by The Associated Press. MLB’s plan included a sliding scale of pay decreases that would leave players at the $563,500 minimum with 47% of their original salaries and top stars Mike Trout and Gerrit Cole at less than 22% of the $36 million they had been set to earn. Players insisted they receive the prorated salaries agreed to in a March 26 deal, which would give them 70% pay at 114 games. That agreement called for the sides to “discuss in good faith the economic feasibility of playing games in the absence of spectators.” The union has said no additional cuts are acceptable. There has not been a schedule averaging fewer than 82 games per team since 1879. “Despite what it sounds like with some of the Twitter bickering back and forth and some of the posturing back and forth, I am optimistic that we are going to play baseball this year,” Milwaukee president of baseball operations David Stearns said. “I’m optimistic that both sides genuinely want to play baseball this year, that there’s a path to doing so, even if it’s a shorter season, even if it’s 50 games.” Ballparks without fans appear certain due to the pandemic. MLB claims large losses due to the virus, which the union disputes, and teams want additional salary reductions. Halem said 27 of the 30 teams would lose money with each additional game. A 50-game schedule would result in players receiving about 30% of their full salaries under the March 26 deal. “You confirmed for us on Sunday that players are unified in their view that they will not accept less than 100% of their prorated salaries, and we have no choice but to accept that representation,” Halem wrote. “Nonetheless, the commissioner is committed to playing baseball in 2020,” Halem added. “He has started discussions with ownership about staging a shorter season without fans.” Halem ended his letter by telling Meyer “we stand ready to discuss any ideas you may have that might lead to an agreement on resuming play without regular fan access in our stadiums.” MLB wants to start the season in early July, and Halem wrote an agreement would have had to be reached by June 1 in order to reopen training camps by June 10. That would leave three to four weeks of preparation, which Halem said is the “wide consensus.” “We are opposed to rushing to begin the season and then subjecting players to a grueling schedule,” he said. Players made their proposal Sunday, five days after management’s initial economic plan. Opening day would be June 30 and the regular season would end Oct. 31, nearly five weeks after the Sept. 27 conclusion that MLB’s proposal stuck to from the season’s original schedule. MLB does not want to play past October because it fears a second wave of the coronavirus could disrupt the postseason and jeopardize $787 million in broadcast revenue. Halem cited MLB’s infectious disease consultant, Dr. Ali Khan, Dean of the College of Public Health at the University of Nebraska. “It is not in the collective interest of clubs or players to begin a 2020 season and subsequently be forced to suspend or cancel it before the completion of the postseason,” Halem wrote. “Dr. Khan and his team have advised us that to minimize the risk of a subsequent delay or cancellation of the 2020 season we should endeavor to complete the season and postseason as early in the fall as possible,” he wrote. “In addition, your proposal ignores the realities of the weather in many parts of the country during the second half of October. If we schedule a full slate of games in late October, we will be plagued by cancellations.” As part of the March 26 deal, players got $170 million in salary advances — ranging from $16,500 to $286,500 — and a guarantee that if the season is scrapped each player would get 2020 service time matching what the player accrued in 2019. MLB’s proposal on May 26 would lower 2020 salaries from about $4 billion to approximately $1.2 billion, not including signing bonuses, termination pay or option buyouts. There would be a $200 million bonus if the postseason is completed. The union’s offer would have salaries total about $2.8 billion, leaving each player with about 70% of his original salary. Halem said coronavirus testing would cost the teams $40 million to $50 million. He claimed “clubs would fare even worse economically if we were to play a significant number of doubleheaders, See MLB | 10 �SPORTS/CLASSIFIEDS NBA mean the Grizzlies, Portland, New Orleans, Sacramento, San Antonio and Phoenix all would From page 8 be in the running for the No. 8 seed out West.

And Major League Soccer announced Wednesday a plan to restart its season in Orlando. “Orlando really could be the epicenter of the comeback of professional sports,” DeSantis said. For an NBA play-in series to happen to determine the No. 8 seed on either playoff bracket, the ninth-place team would have to be within four games of eighth place once the eight-game schedule of lead-in games is completed. If a play-in series occurs, it would basically be a best-of-two — where the No. 9 seed would have to win two head-to-head matchups to take over the No. 8 spot. There also would be some jostling for playoff positioning happening in the eight-game restart. In the East, Toronto and Boston are separated by three games for the No. 2 spot, and Miami, Indiana and Philadelphia are separated by two games for the No. 4 spot. Out West, the Clippers, Denver, Utah, Oklahoma City and Houston are all within four games of one another in the race for the No. 2 seed on that bracket. There are still some elements of the restart plan that could be changed, and other matters are still being negotiated — such as how much of a percentage of their salaries players will lose because some regular-season games will be canceled. If 15% of the regular season is not played, which would be the current estimate based on the proposal, players would have to give up roughly $610 million in salary for this season.

There’s a big difference between Cup and those other two races.” There was a cry for NASCAR to return to the old Fairgrounds, where the Cup Series ran 42 times from 1958 through 1984, and the lower-level Xfinity and Truck Series last raced there in 2000. The Speedway Motorsports Inc.-owned Fairgrounds weren’t much of an option, said Ben Kennedy, NASCAR vice president of racing development. “While they continue to work on the Fairgrounds and are optimistic about what the future might look like there, this has been kind of a separate conversation,” Kennedy said. Kennedy added: “We’ll certainly stay in touch with them as things move along and continue to support them there.” Dover expected the Superspeedway to become a NASCAR fixture and not just a placeholder until the Fairgrounds becomes a viable option. NASCAR eyed a race date of June 20, 2021, and — as the tentative first race in NBC’s portion of TV schedule — it would be a blast to debut under the lights. The track sits about 35 miles southeast of Nashville, closer to Gladeville, Tennessee. “I think the uniqueness of it tied to the market is kind of a win-win scenario,” Kennedy said. “I think it will certainly add a little bit of variety to the schedule, kind of another turning point as we think about the next iterations of the 2021 schedule.” Dover has been a NASCAR home sine 1969 and the site of two race weekends each year since 1971. The concrete mile track, where seventime champion Jimmie Johnson has 11 career victories, was scheduled to hold a race in May this season until the coronavirus pandemic forced a postponement. Dover is expected to run Cup races on Aug. 22 and 23. “Our company will get stronger, which means our situation in Dover will get even better,” Tatoian said. “Unfortunately, there are going to be some disappointed fans and we understand that. But if you’re a true NASCAR fan, you really will embrace this, even though it may mean going to Dover one less time.” assumed $2 billion in additional debt that must be serviced and do not have the financial capacity to From page 8 push more 2020 financial as your counter-proposal obligations into future years without impacting contemplates.” their financial stability.” Players proposed that $100 million in salaries Both sides have probe deferred to 2021 and posed expanding the play2022 if the postseason is offs from 10 teams to 14, canceled. and the union has offered “Deferring salaries, with to guarantee the expansion through 2021.

The union proposed that group not get paid but receive service time. From page 8 was the fourth-highest market for the race at Darlington Raceway. Dover wants to act smart in the expansion. The company said it would pump $8 million to $10 million into the track for capital improvements and does not plan to add permanent seating beyond the 25,000 capacity currently at track. “We only have one person out there,” Tatoian said. “We’ve had a maintenance person just to help. So we’ve never been able to take advantage of the phone calls that we still get today from people that want to rent the facility for various things. Now, we’re able to do that again.” The 1.33-mile concrete track was built in 2001 by Dover Motorsports and hosted NASCAR and IndyCar events until 2011. Nashville Superspeedway held Xfinity and Truck events, as well as IndyCar races, from 2001 until 2011. Tatoian said he’s open to all three series returning to the schedule.

We need to realize that this is not true. What Jesus taught was the truth, but it was not unrevealed truth. Most of the teachings of Jesus have a direct parallel somewhere in the Old Testament: God’s word which had been given to God’s people Jonathan hundreds of years prior to the McAnulty arrival of Jesus in the flesh. Take for instance Jesus’ teachContributing Columnist ing that the greatest commandment was to love God and that the second commandment was to love one’s neighbor. Jesus was, of course, right in His declaration, but we should acknowledge that He was not alone. Others, having studiously studied and meditated upon God’s law had arrived at the same conclusion. If you doubt this, read or reread the opening scene to Jesus’ delivery of the Parable of the Good Samaritan. A Jewish lawyer asks Jesus what the greatest commandment was, and Jesus in turn asked him for his opinion on the matter first, asking, “how do you read it.” It was the lawyer who answered that the great commandment was to love God. Jesus then agreed with the lawyer, stating that the lawyer had answered correctly (cf. Luke 10:25-28). Likewise, at a later date, in a similar conversation, another scribe asked Jesus the very same question, and this time Jesus supplied the answer. But after hearing what Jesus had said, the scribe agreed with Jesus and proceeded to explain to all why the Lord’s answer was correct. Further, after the scribe laid out his thinking on the issue, Jesus praised him for what he had said (cf. Mark 12:28-34). All of which is to say that, prior to the preaching of Jesus, there were already Scribes and Pharisees teaching some of the same things Jesus was to teach. Which makes some sense, as all parties involved were teaching from the very same book. What made the teaching of Jesus different then was not primarily substance. Rather there were two other qualities possessed by Jesus which made His doctrines notable. The first was the authority with which He taught (cf. Matthew 7:28-29). Rather then appealing to the authority of others in order to buttress His points, Jesus merely said, “I am telling you,” and left it at that. The other thing that made Jesus particularly noteworthy, and that one thin g was His willingness and ability to live according to what He taught, and His expectations that others do the same. The problem with the scribes and Pharisees was not primarily one of ignorance. It was a problem of application. This is why Jesus condemned them as hypocrites. He told His followers: “The scribes and the Pharisees sit on Moses’ seat, so do and observe whatever they tell you, but not the works they do. For they preach, but do not practice. They tie up heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on people’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to move them with their finger. (Matthew 23:1-4; ESV) Going back to the Parable of the Good Samaritan, after the scribe correctly supplied his awareness of what the great commandment was, he immediately tried to find justification for why he was not doing what he knew he ought to be doing (cf. Luke 10:29). Knowing the truth only has value if one is also willing to live according to the truth. Understanding this, we can perhaps better understand the New Commandment that Jesus did deliver to us. Jesus said, “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another. (John 13:34-35; ESV)” Loving one another was not a new commandment. God had always taught His people that they should be loving. The “new” part of the commandment was to observe the life of Jesus in our attempt at understanding how to love. The love of Jesus was not a matter of mouthing the right platitudes, but was instead shown through consistently and constantly living the way that God had taught His people He wanted them to live. . Elsewhere we read the command, “Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth (1 John 3:18; ESV).” Anybody can say the words. It is something differently entirely to live according to the words. The example of Jesus is one of teaching the truth while at the same time living according to the truth. Granted, Jesus sets a high bar, but it is one He fully expected us to try and meet. “By this will men know you are my disciples,” Jesus said… not by the words we mouth, but rather by the manner in which we strive to live according to those words.

It’s another special day in the life of the church that we remember. It’s sort of a mystery and may be a little hard to understand, but here goes. If you’ve talked about word meanings in school, you might remember that “tri” means three. So the Trinity represents the “three” persons of God: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. But wait, I know you say, “I thought there was only one God.” Well, there is only one God. The Bible tells us that. God is our Creator, the Father of us all.

I wholeheartedly believe in the sufficiency of Scripture, and my goal is always to present it faithfully. My object in writing this week is nothing more or less than that. But the connection between Esther 7 and the current upheaval of our American society is striking. For the past fifteen weeks, I’ve been writing on the Book of Esther. And today, I’m continuing with chapter 7. If you remember, Haman has just been humiliated. Upon devising a wicked plan to kill Mordecai, he visits the king early one morning to discuss the matter (see Esth. 6:4). Much to his disappointment, however, Haman is summoned to lead a parade in honor of the very man he seeks to kill (see Esth. 6:10). Afterward, Haman runs to his home in tears, seeking pity from his wife and friends (see Esth. 6:12-13). While all of this is happening, Esther is preparing a banquet for Haman and King Ahasuerus. Why? Well, because this villain named Haman is also plotting a genocide against the Jewish people. And with that in mind, Esther wisely holds a feast to confront Haman’s sin and save her people from death (see Esth. 4:16). “So the king and Haman went in to feast with Queen Esther. And on the second day, as they were drinking wine after the feast, the king said to Esther, ‘What is your wish, Queen Esther? It her plan to save shall be granted you. them from unjust And what is your death. But that’s not request? Even to the all she does. half of my kingdom, “Then King it shall be fulfilled.’ Ahasuerus said to Then Queen Esther Esther, ‘Who is answered, ‘If I he, and where is have found favor in Isaiah he, who has dared your sight, O king, Pauley and if it please the Contributing to do this?’ And Esther said, ‘A foe king, let my life be columnist and enemy! This granted me for my wicked Haman!’ wish, and my people Then Haman was terrified for my request. For we before the king and the have been sold, I and my queen” (v. 5-6 ESV). people, to be destroyed, Esther seeks justice. to be killed, and to be annihilated.

But instead The same is true of Esther in chapter 7. Iden- of confronting Haman then and there, she invites tifying with the Jewish them to another banquet people is the first step in the next day (see Esth. 5:8). And as we know, during this second banquet in chapter 7, her plea for justice is met. With prudence and patience, Esther crafts her words. With God behind her, she seeks justice in the right place at the right time. And this leads to the beautiful display of justice in the Book of Esther that causes anyone to smile. Because we’re made to love justice. God calls us to do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with Him (see Micah 6:8). But our idea of justice will always be skewed until we recognize the depravity of our own hearts. You and I are just as guilty of sin as the most racist man in America. But God, in His grace, has given us His Son to make us right with Him. And just as King Ahasuerus’s wrath abates upon the death of Haman, so God’s wrath against us abates upon the death of Christ (see Gal. 3:13). We must identify with the vulnerable and seek justice where justice is due. But make no mistake about it, justice cannot be understood rightly apart from the Word of God. And the beauty of grace is that a sinner like me and you can find forgiveness through Christ. I pray that fuels our fight for justice in this country both now and forever.
