No cheap grace!
Soul Snack 9/206 ... Cheating on Jesus.
The Jesus of my journey is the crucified one. The signature on my page of life is a red streaky cross.
It is so difficult to imagine a life verbally committed to The Redeemer that visibly lives in opposition to His words.
The God of Golgotha claims no mere adherence or fleeting 'follow me!'
Written on His blood stained pages of life is the invitation of Calvary to deep and sincere fellowship with the divine. A strong and consistent discipleship against all odds becomes the rule of life.
The gift of Gethsemane voids the easy indulgence of contemporary religions and the easy listening of skillfully delivered sermons. This gift claims my body, my soul and my all.
Anything less than radical repentance is simply cheating Him and me!
For I resolved to know nothing ... except Jesus Christ and him crucified. 1 Cor 2:2
"Salvation without discipleship is cheap grace!" - Dietrich Bonhoeffer
