Death by Love
Thursday, August 21st, 2008
“Death by Love: Reflections on the Cross.” Revisiting who Jesus and the cross is, deserves more attention today than most people would like to think. Over time Christians arguably could begin losing sight of the cross, what it meant and what it means for us today. Mark Driscoll brings us back to the fundamental aspects of the cross and the practical implications of a proper view of the cross in this day. Some church movements today focus on the incarnation, leaving out the cross and the exaltation of Jesus Christ and therefore undermine the deity of Jesus Christ and the gospel. The correct view of the cross gives way to the correct view of the atonement and ultimately giving us the clear picture of the gospel that we are to preach today. Driscoll looks at penal substitution, propitiation and expiation. By gaining the fuller picture of the cross we may be faithful in building God’s Kingdom with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Psalm 34:18 - “The LORD is near to the brokenhearted
and saves the crushed in spirit.”
Isaiah 55:1-3

Even our four-year daughter is besieged by covetousness this season.
As Francois Fenelon said, “May God preserve us from that fatal slavery…”
Or as Sufjan Stevens has said: “Get behind me, Santa!”
Isaiah 55
The Compassion of the LORD
1 “Come, everyone who thirsts,come to the waters;and he who has no money,come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
2 Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread, and your labor for that which does not satisfy? Listen diligently to me, and eat what is good, and delight yourselves in rich food.
3 Incline your ear, and come to me; hear, that your soul may live; and I will make with you an everlasting covenant,my steadfast, sure love for David.

Monday, August 27th, 2007Just finished listening to the first three chapters of Isaiah
Hard not to see a warning there to our own nation.
We would be wise to listen…
“Stop regarding man
in whose nostrils is breath,
for of what account is he?”
Isaiah 2:22
