Luther Rocks II

Beware of aspiring to such purity that you will not wish to looked upon as a sinner.
Martin Luther

{Hat Tip: Ray Ortlund, preaching at Element. Listen to it. You will not regret it.

I was in Houston when Ray spoke for me, and our tech guy John was texting me quotable quotes during the message. For about 45 minutes, I wished I wasn't on vacation with my family so I could be there in person. :-)

My favorite part is where Ray says it's not usually our "badness" that separates us from God but our reliance on our "goodness."

Yup, that's a really fundamental insight that we always always stray from or, let's face it, rebel against. I'm so thankful for people who are able to repeat these difficult truths with such clarity and humility. Thanks for making Ray's talk available to us all!
