Frightened By What I Deserve

For the past two weeks we have been studying Genesis 3 at Chevis Oaks Baptist Church. The more we look at this chapter, the more I realize that I deserve to hang on a cross. I could never pay for my guilt as Jesus did, but I still deserve it. When I think about the details of the crucifixion, I am horrified by it. That is what this video describes.


What is even more amazing is that the spiritual pain for Christ was even worse than the physical torture this video describes.

Praise God for His amazing grace!

Eric,

Amen! I share your convictions!

Sadly, there are far too many who claim to trust in that finished work of grace, who are trying to add value to Christ's perfect finished work by their own performance.

John,

I heartily agree. sometimes I fall into that trap myself.
