Repentance (153)
  1. There is a mirror that we Christians look into with daily repentance.
  2. Our Lord has told us not to make these fine distinctions in grades of sin.
  3. What would be a fitting thing to give up, especially during the season of Lent?
  4. Last year, a friend I follow tweeted, “Calling yourself a sinner is spitting on all the work that Jesus did to make you a saint.”
  5. God’s Son is infinitely more than our fragile egos have flattened him out to be.
  6. Drs. Keith and Rosenbladt are back on the show to talk about repentance.
  7. There was another criminal next to Christ the day he died. He was aware of who Jesus was, and why he was there.
  8. In happiness, we dare never forget that it is Christ, and Christ alone, who has restored our joy.
  9. I became like God’s child David, whom the Lord pardoned of his adultery and murder. I became like Noah, Abraham, Judah, Aaron, Gideon, and so many more wayward children.
  10. If you’ve been in church long enough, you might have seen the worst of someone’s unrepentant sin get them kicked out, cast out, excommunicated or “handed over to Satan so their flesh might die and their soul might live.”
  11. We spend the first nine months of our lives in utter darkness. There are no tiny fluorescent bulbs beaming from the ceiling of the womb, no fetal flashlights, not even a pinprick of illumination.
  12. We hang on to our sins not despite the fact that they hurt, but precisely because they do hurt. We need to hurt, to fret over them, to cry over them, to make amends over them, because by doing so, we will grease the wheels of God’s forgiveness.
