If a person has grasped the meaning of God's grace in his heart, he will do justice. If he doesn't live justly, then he may say with his lips that he is grateful for God's grace, but in his heart he is far from him. If he doesn't care about the poor, it reveals that at best he doesn't understand the grace he has experienced, and at worst he has not really encountered the saving mercy of God. Grace should make you just.
Timothy KellerThe cross is the place where we find the freedom to accept ourselves without being proud and to challenge ourselves without being crushed.
Timothy KellerPeople only get in the afterlife what they have most wanted-either to have God as Savior and Master or to be their own Saviors and Masters.
