Gary Millar: Liveblog #8

A fantastic blog post referenced by Gary Millar.


Some other points he made:
  • I'd rather have a God who is more holy, more outraged at sin and more free than I am.
  • If we understand our God, if we know all his ways, and if we can predict all his thoughts, then our God is too small.
  • Should we apologise for the God of the universe? . . . Never.
  • God's resolution for his holiness and his mercy is in Romans 3.
  • We ought not only to be able to sit ok with God's wrath, but sit breathless before what he has done!
  • The God we can never completely work out, because he's God.
  • Without understanding the wrath of God we cannot hope to understand the massiveness of what's happening at the Cross.
  • Our amazingly creative God came up with a way to be both holy and merciful.
