Jared C. Wilson Quotes

The Gospel Of Jesus Christ Solves The Innate Problem We Have Of "glory Greed." We Are, Every One Of Us From Birth, Incompetent Thieves Of The Glory That Belongs Only To God. We Know In Our Insidest Insides That We Fall Short Of His Glory, And So We Are Constantly Clawing And Scratching To Make Up That Difference In Some Way. This Is How All Sin Is Fundamentally Idolatry And How All Accumulations Of Worldly Treasures - Be They Material Goods Or Religious Merit - Are Fundamentally Acts Of Self-worship. Then In The Gospel Of Christ, God Forgives Our Petty Theft, Sets Us Free From The Bondage Of Our Idols, And Unites Us Spiritually, Irrevocably, And Satisfyingly To Himself. Now The Glory We Tried To Steal Is Shared With Us Freely, And It Is Real Glory This Time, Not These Pathetic Knockoffs We Think Will Do The Trick.
