He will plead guilty on our behalf, and suffer the death sentence in our place.

If the feeding of the 5000 invited an emphasis on Jesus’ COMPASSION, this week’s miracle invites a sermon focused on Jesus’ AUTHORITY.
07/30/20
There is no justification except by faith alone. The radical forgiveness itself puts the old to death and calls forth the new.

“Rembrandt goes so deep into the mysterious that he says things for which there are no words in any language.”

He is our gold. He is our pure garment. He is our healing. He is our sanity. He is our wholeness.

The good news of Jesus Christ guides us into godly worship, not self-worship.
