Anytime your banner becomes anything other than Jesus Christ you ought to be afraid of Hell.

People say the cross is a sign of how much man is worth. That’s not true. The cross is a sign of how depraved we really are, that it took the death of God’s own Son. The only thing that could save a people like us was the death of God’s own Son under the wrath of His own Father paying the price, rising again from the dead. Powerful to say, this is the Gospel of Jesus.

How can you learn unconditional love if you’re married to a woman who meets all your conditions?
