So true and so humbling. Of course, it begins in the most discrete and “innocent” ways, like where the Body of Christ doesn’t believe or obey scriptures like 1 Corinthians 12, Romans 12 and Ephesians 4. For example, “Unity? Why’s that so important? They don’t believe the right way; I can’t be unified with them.” Let alone the Body of Christ, even with our spouses we struggle with Ephesians 4:29. We are quicker with cut downs than with words that will edify. And, are we really talking about scriptures with our children and family as we walk along the road, when we lie down, when we . . . .? No, we don’t need to do as the Galatians were doing and start preaching a gospel of works, but we do need to start believing and obeying and testifying to His truths!

Ron Sider has always written this way. And I think it is refreshing. The quote above with the word treason is strong, but largly true. Most wouldn’t word it that way, but it is refreshing to see him write with intensity. Great post, thanks.

i’m thankful that God sovereignly sanctifies us. It’s a relief to know that it’s not on our own merit and strength. God works in those who are truly His.

Thanks for the reminder.

This post is a real dart to the heart, but that’s a good thing. You made some really good points that I need to think about how they relate in my life. I know I’m no tthe Christian I should be, but I cling to the promise that God’s not done with me. And I pray that with time, the Holy Spirit will make my tart fruit a little sweeter.
