What higher approval could a person enjoy than to know that what he or she has done is pleasing to God?
God’s grace is not infinite. God is infinite, and God is gracious. We experience the grace of an infinite God, but grace is not infinite. God sets limits to His patience and forbearance. He warns us over and over again that someday the ax will fall and His judgment will be poured out.
We take comfort, however, that mystery is not a synonym for contradiction.
We do not determine right or wrong based on what everybody else is doing.
I'll retire when they pry my cold, dead fingers off of my Bible.
If God is the Creator of the entire universe, then it must follow that He is the Lord of the whole universe. No part of the world is outside of His lordship. That means that no part of my life must be outside of His lordship.
