Jesus = Me completed

Nothing more is required but faith in Christ alone from a heart of contrition reconizing the error of our sinful ways.

He is the one that set me free!

Josh - Yeah, I can relate to wanting to add something to the gospel...particularly some sort of theological position. But the gospel just won't allow it! Ron - I'm right with you man. In the flesh we always want to add something to the gospel. Megan - Glad you found it helpful. Marshall - Yep. To be more specific, the life, death, and resurrection. Nothing about me. I love it.

In our flesh we want to do something to please or earn God's love, when in reality God never looks away from us in disgust or disapproval if we are in Christ. It's Jesus plus nothing, a very beautiful thing indeed! Blessings Ron Reffett Hey there Stephen,

It is beautiful and frustrating all at the same time. In our flesh we want to do something to please or earn God’s love, when in reality God never looks away from us in disgust or disapproval if we are in Christ.

But 1 Corinthians 15:3, 4 shut my mouth pretty quickly. Thanks for the timely reminder of the centrality of Christ in the gospel.
