Today’s Thought “When the Judge Is Disqualified” G. Ward

Ephesians 2:4-5

But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—

It’s not them, it’s us. Quiet time allows introspection and options enable escape. These realities presented yet allow defense mechanisms to rise because the whole of society teaches that any “not guilty” of the most heinous crime are on their way to righteous pursuits (cf. Ro.3:10). Moreover, “Breaking News” on our varied devices keeps us with horrid bouts in categorization of the supposed worst society offers, subtracting from Final Authority’s description of every man as sinful (Ge.8:21, Jer.17:9, Ro.1:24,26,28, 3:23).

The essence of being made whole (via the redemption only Christ allows) remains available to the vilest this world offers and the refusal for any considerate of their religious standing without throwing a lifeline (Matt.28:19) unto another seemingly hope-less is the vilest contribution (*cf. Ro.1:16).
