Too many Christians see the church as “just an implication of the gospel” instead of thinking, “this is the whole point of the good news – God forming a people for His glory and the good of the world."

There is no shortage of competing ideas of what it truly means to be a Christian. But what does Christ say in his Scriptures about what it truly means to be one of his disciples?

Why would God come this time in the form of a baby, rather than a firestorm or whirlwind? Because this time he has not come to bring judgment but to bear it. — Tim Keller

Our Western culture has has conditioned us to avoid pain/sorrow/suffering at all costs. But if we spend our whole lives simply trying to avoid suffering, you will miss Jesus and his gospel!

The song ‘O Come, O Come, Emmanuel “reaches down into our weak hearts and pulls us up, in faith, to see the certainty of the end.”
