The marker of those who understand the gospel of Jesus Christ is that, when they stumble and fall, when they screw up, they run to God and not from him, because they clearly understand that their acceptance before God is not predicated upon their behavior but on the righteous life of Jesus Christ and his sacrificial death.
Matt ChandlerIf we could understand how impossible our situation is, we would grow in reverence for the kingship of Christ.
Matt ChandlerThis avoidance of the difficult things of Scripture โ of sinfulness and hell and Godโs notable severity โ is idolatrous and cowardly. If a man or a woman who teaches the Scriptures is afraid to explain to you the severity of God, they have betrayed you, and they love their ego more than they love you.
Matt Chandler
