When Strivings Cease: Replacing the Gos... A source page for quotes linked to Ruth Chou Simons. 0 quotes
“Now we are getting to the heart of how the Gospel differs from the moral grid. As one writer put it, 'The main thing between you and God is not your sins, but your damnable good works.' Ouch. And herein lies the whole reason why we must cease striving through good works: they do not save. If there is a gospel of self-improvement, it is a damning one. It is a gospel that is not good news at all. It will wall you if, shrivel you up, and destroy your sensitivity to God's pursuit. This is why it must be utterly destroyed and replaced with the true gospel of life-transforming grace.” SinMoralityJesus ChristGospel TruthFalse Gospel Book:When Strivings Cease: Replacing the Gospel of Self-Improvement with the Gospel of Life-Transforming Grace Source: When Strivings Cease: Replacing the Gospel of Self-Improvement with the Gospel of Life-Transforming Grace
