Vocation (78)
  1. True faith, saving faith that receives the good news about the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world is a faith created in us by the Holy Spirit through the Gospel (Eph 2:8-9).
  2. Forgiveness of sin, righteousness, and eternal life aren't handed out by God because we deserve it.
  3. It's difficult enough for us to bear anothers' burdens, but carry another person's sin for him? Why would we do that?
  4. The truth is, a Christian's holiness is hidden outside himself in Christ through faith.
  5. Old Adam's works are good because he says they're good. End of conversation.
  6. I’m still piecing together fragments. I’ve spent my life collecting scraps of personal stories that will explain my father to me.
