Amen.
One could also argue (I'm speaking as a madman)that what Jesus did for us was an insanely desperate last ditch effort at RESCUING us from His perfect justice!
We will all front up to the TERRIBLE,AWESOME ALL CONSUMING FIRE FROM WHICH NOTHING IS HID when this mortal coil is gone.The perfect sacrifice of His ONLY begotten Son is the ONLY hope of surviving the encounter! What kind of love is that!
Some appear to think we are vying for a place in an exclusive country club where only the very best might just make it in.God invites "whosoever" and has made a way for us,that,to say the very least, was incredibly expensive.
Mephibosheth sat at the King's table (on someone elses account) but I wouldn't mind betting he didn't sit himself down and start mouthing off the vilest accusations that pass for 'theology' in this here RF.
Rather he would have sat down,shut his yap,and listened to what the King and His court might discuss...all the time wondering..."what is thy servant,that my Lord should look upon a dead dog such as I?"
I so love and hate this RF.
Thankyou so much for writing SR.Your posts are always encouraging and uplifting and God knows we need it!
I agree. I praise the Lord for Freepers like y’all that strive to present the truth in gentleness and respect - even when it’s hard.
It's not speaking as a madman. It's beautifully put.
