People need a consistent explanation of the cross of Christ and what it accomplished. Christ's atoning work is the centerpiece of the gospel and the only solution for humanity's estrangement from our Creator.
R. C. SproulThe higher purpose of the cross was that the Father would be glorified by the satisfaction of His justice.
R. C. SproulWhen God's justice falls, we are offended because we think God owes perpetual mercy. We must not take His grace for granted. We must never lose our capacity to be amazed by grace
