Do you feel stressed? Trick question: of course you do—we ALL do. But Steve has some really good news for beleaguered believers that can change everything and have you triumphantly declaring, “Quid Inferorum!”
“Love the sinner, hate the sin.” They meant well. I meant well. And on paper it makes sense. We, as Christians, are called to love others. Check. We, as Christians, hate sin. Check.
How can we possibly be worthy of salvation? Here’s the bottom line: The sacrifice of Christ is totally sufficient for all our sins.
I mistakenly think God is like me and that his thoughts are not above my thoughts and his ways aren’t above my ways.
We forget how good the good news really is….and become the very thing Jesus came to prevent. Maybe we believe that we could not be that bad or that God’s grace could not be that good. Maybe it’s just that a religion of rules and righteousness is attractive because, frankly, we want to do it ourselves and get the credit for it. It could be that pride and self-righteousness are so much a part of us that we’re attracted to that which affirms it.
What is ‘natural theology’ and why should you care? Find out when Steve and the gang sit down with renowned theologian and author N.T. Wright to discuss his latest book.
In Luke 4, we see that grace is Jesus’ job description. He came to bring good news and radical freedom to poor prisoners and sick sinners. When Jesus is in the building, it’s all good… but there is a kicker. Grace is only good news for those who need it. Join Steve to find out what on earth would make Jesus leave the building.
What is amazing is that the Father knows his sons, he knows where they are, and how they will respond to his actions.
