The apostle thanks God for his position in the church and for the grace that has enabled him to attain it. He assures me that I would not enjoy any sense of distinction if it weren't for my sin. He assures me that I am worthless and undeserving of any sense of distinction, but for my sin. The cross is not a perfect symbol of sin, but it is a reminder of the grace of God that can overcome our sins. Christ was hanging on the cross with perfect patience, shining with the brightness of God and surrounded by an infinite darkness. This created a great disturbance on earth. The estate was vast and impressive, with many acres of land and a grand palace... The place was a sacred place where the people could find forgiveness for their sins and feel God's love in return.. The beautiful display of grace on the cross was very evident. You could see that sin had been completely ended for the saints The saints' punishment was finally ended. He is the unstoppable force of nature, a being of power and might beyond the reach of all the oppressive forces on this exposed earth.

You contemplate how it is possible that there is so much divine reality present.. The celebration was supposed to be a joyous occasion for everyone to enjoy.

There is something mysterious about our own anger, resentment and contempt--because grace is greater than sin. The might of God is greater than what we can comprehend with our limited minds.. It has the power to create imaginary realities that are beyond the constraints of the world's existing beliefs. Grace is mysterious and we find the eternal continuance of the present moment with the accurate details of here and now. This present moment of creativity provides us with a way out of the debilitating cycle of despair..

A sound that will keep you sharp and attentive. A thing that is not easily classified. If you want to add a bit of excitement to your day, try doing something that will make you feel refreshed and happy..
