I found this quote on ' the shovel' site. The site is one of our links
check this out..
Ironically, when I think I understand my sins so as to describe them well is to be caught up in the demand of that condemning voice. When I truly see sin for what it is I see it according to its true futility and deadness; and in
seeing its deadness I have seen my true life.
(the shovel)
counting our sins well is really whipping ourselves over the head with the religious poop scoop; I'd say it feels 'honerable' but in reality it is allowing ourselves to sit under judgement; it'strying to save ourselves by our own merits. That's arrogance.
i still find it scary to rest in His salvation but I think I'm finding it easier than before
Christmas blessings to you all.
I'm unable to make the Christmas get together in East London but I'm enjoying the MP3 teaching from the web.Thanks for putting it there so I can enjoy it while I do the ironing
Jesus - home of the rejected, the naughty and the sinners

yeah I know , we've all heard this, but the fact that Christ has made himself accessible to me in such a human way. More Human than human; the original human.
His righteousness has really astounded me lately; I mean what we are up to at the moment, the world would scorn, but Jesus is right in there being my defense, my home on the outside of the margins, outside the walls of Jerusalem, in Him.
Can't think why i used to get so strung up about performance, appearance s and a need for a 'professional' reputation. Ha ha !!!
