Far As The Curse Is Found
Where are you? What fine mess have you gotten yourself into Lucy? What rut are you stuck in? What bitterness are you nurturing? What prison of your own making have you squatted oppressed in for far too long?
The Grace of God- it's such an overused slogan it sounds cliche-- but what does it really mean?
It means that -seriously- nothing you have done, no problem or mess you have created, no evil or sin or hurt you caused is bad enough to supercede Jesus' sacrificial atonment for it on the Cross- God's love is bigger, all encompassing it. His love wraps itself around and swallows it and remembers it no more. This is the source of our great HOPE. HOPE- it's not just a town in Arkansas. It's rooted in the Cross.
The Cross- Because you can't save yourself.
God's Love for you did though- And no man has any greater Love than that.
Probably the most passionate Sermon I heard preached on the Radical Abounding Grace
is from a fellow named Joseph Prince.
Check him out.

I recommend that between now and Easter every church show his DVD on Grace, Catholic, Protestant or anything inbetween.
