Been a while since I take time and blog my thoughts. Guess I was just really busy with being lazy :(
ANYWAY.
I was watching a video about a preacher talked about the most terrifying truth about the Gospel is that - God is just and God is good. Here's the videos, may you be inspired too! :)
The Gospel by Paul Washer
What Is Salvation? by Paul Washer
I love how he revolved everything of the message to Jesus Christ. Not the first time to hear this kind of message, there's no new mind-blowing message with bombastic words or vocabulary used to deliver the message, but it is so simple and so direct about the Gospel, about Jesus.
"Nothing in my hands I bring, simply to the Cross I cling"
This sentence which he quoted from a hymn (not gonna lie, googled the hymn only after I heard from Pr. Paul) so profoundly simple yet powerful. Nothing, simply nothing, but the Cross.
I heard people said that when a person become more and more Christ-like, the more simple the person is. Not complicating things. Overlooking offenses yet loves justice. Not a personality trait. Not optimism or ignorance; But the person is just very simple. Even in the midst of pain and trials, peace ruled the heart and holds a deep comprehension and grasp that Jesus still reigns.
I guess that's how a Christ-like person is? Had nothing in their hands, but simply to the Cross they cling.
Such a constant and faithful truth the Gospel preaches, yet powerful and strong in various, or in fact every, seasons of life.
God is just and God is good.
Hallelujah.
