Thanks Peter. Piper certainly has been blessed with insight and a great way of saying things!
Great quote. And amen on freedom instead of fear! I was reading the other day that God knew that it was easier for us as humans to believe promises than obey commandments. So He established His covenant with Abraham on believing promises, not on obeying commands, That wouldn’t come for another 430 years with Moses, as Paul points out in Galatians. And that’s why the New Covenant of grace and faith we belong to is about believing the promises. It was for freedom that Christ set us free! Hallelujah! Blessings.
Wow that is a great insight!
Much to ponder
