Please note, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is rated PG-13. Previously, we saw how Queen Ramonda gave her life to protect Riri Williams. Her sacrifice gives us a great example of the type of sacrifice Jesus offered for us. After our Lord’s Resurrection, He spoke with His Disciples who in turn went out into the world to share the Good News of the Grace Jesus offered through His death and rising again. In other words, Jesus’ sacrifice became an example for others moving forward. That is what we see with Riri Williams as well. She is impacted by Queen Ramonda’s sacrifice for her, even though she is not part of Ramonda’s family. She even tells Shuri, now made the new queen by her mother’s death, about how she feels: Your mother protected me, like I was one of her own. The least that I can do is to try and return the favor. It’s not that Riri wasn’t amazing before, but now she has more focus. Now she has the tools, focus, and desire to do more with her engineering skills than she ever has before. Riri takes the sacrifice Ramonda made for her seriously. She uses it as fuel to do better and be better. We are called to do the same with the Death and Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, which He went through for our sake.
