The gospel is not about choosing to follow advice; it's about being called to follow a King.
No one is too bad for Jesus. A lot of people think they are too good for Jesus.
If you're a Christian how do you deal with stress without Jesus? You don't.
If Jesus rose from the dead, then you have to accept all he said.
In religion, you obey because God is useful. In Christianity, you obey because God is beautiful.
As long as we think we are not that bad, the idea of grace will never change us.
