God doesn’t just simply give you all the things. He does so because his very own Son came down and earned all the things for you.

“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness.” We hear those words on the lips of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount. But, too often we misunderstand what he’s saying.

To keep me from becoming conceited because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to harass me, to keep me from becoming conceited.

The Gospel restores us to our true humanity, embeds us in the body of Christ, feeds us with Christ’s own body, and offers us a community.

How many of you Christians out there are barely holding it together? I know the inclination should be towards joy and hope, but for some of us, it's not.

“That can’t be right”, I thought to myself as I flipped back and forth between two verses in my Bible.

Where contrition is evident, the conscience has already been prodded, piqued, finally terrified. More Law only serves to confirm the lie this person is already at risk of believing: that the last work of the conscience is also God’s last word. But God’s last word is the word of absolution, not the confirmation of the conscience’s testimony, but now its contradiction.

Only in this manner could the good that the law pointed to be completed. It was completed in us, not by us.

Pelagianism is the ancient heresy that says that if you work hard enough and will something strongly enough, you can prevent sin
