KEY PRINCIPLES FROM THIS MESSAGE:

Any“goodness” in God’s eyes comes from the obedience that comes from faith alone!

God's love is a compassionate way of thinking which willingly, truly puts others first, as illustrated at the Cross of Jesus Christ! (today being three days before Resurrection Sunday, we remember the day Jesus went to the Cross for us!)

The Bible is filled with two aspects: how a person is saved & how salvation is assured.

If you’re not reading your Bible IN CONTEXT, you aren’t reading your Bible properly and therefore are immediately prone to misinterpretation, using your human intuition and/or fleshly desires to interpret the mind of Christ (very bad).

We are not to hyper-focus on aspects of the Bible in a vacuum, where the context of God’s good INTENTION is lost!

Don’t get hung up on being “intelligent”. It’s much better to be wise.

Jesus not only chose the Cross, but He chose to STAY THERE out of loving obedience, until it was finished.
