1.The essence of all religion, including Christian religion, is to excuse ourselves and accuse others.

2.Without the resurrection power of the new creation at work in our lives, every virtue will eventually become a vice. The essence of the manifested life of Christ is not the acquisition of moral virtues. Fundamentalist moralism of all sorts is a counterfeit gospel.

3.Only the Holy Spirit, in and through us, can effectively administer the right grace, for the right need, in the right way, at the right time, for the right person, for the right reason. Virtue exercised outside of His administration, is no virtue at all.

Marvel not that you all must be born again – John 3:7

Be constantly being filled with the Spirit – Ephesians 5:18

    We are all sinners saved by God's grace and mercy. None of us are righteous. All of our works are as filthy rags. If we have sinned one sin, we are guilty of all. None of us is any better than anyone else.

    Lord Jesus be merciful to me a sinner.

    "Let him that is without sin among you first cast the stone ..."

    And from our side - the sooner we realise our hopelessness we sooner we realise the sufficiency of the Lord Jesus.

    All religions are based on attidute people to gods - people must to make something for their gods. But Christianity is based on faith, that God made something for people from love.
