“The message of the prophets is not, ‘Israel has sinned; therefore, Israel needs to get its act together or it will die.’ The message is… ‘Israel has sinned; Israel is already dead. Cling to the God who raises the dead.’”
—Peter Leithart
The Definition of True Love (1 John 4:7-21)
“O Love that will not let me go,
I rest my weary soul in thee;
I give thee back the life I owe,
That in thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be.”
—George Matheson, O Love that Will Not Let Me Go
