"The gospel is not balanced; it's insane, it's radical, it is a scandal. The Holy God of Israel justifies freely sinners - that's a scandal.
The New Covenant is radical; it cannot be balanced. You cannot balance love with hate, you cannot balance cruelty with kindness, you cannot balance law with grace - they do not mix.
Jesus plus anything equals nothing. Jesus plus nothing equals everything."
Rob Rufus - "Pharisees and Legalists" - "Grace and Glory Conference" - Hong Kong, Wednesday 24th October 2007.
"The man who never reads will never be read. He who never quotes will never be quoted. He who will not use the thoughts of other men's brains proves that he has no brains of his own ... You need to read" - C H Spurgeon. "To fail to learn from the pulpit of the past is to impoverish that of the present" - Tony Sargent
