Thoughts of Atonement

God’s Greatest Work

Thomas Guthrie 23


Of all God’s works, redemption through His Son’s atonement is the greatest; it is His “strange” work. That cross on Calvary, which mercy raised for you, cost more love, and labor, and wisdom, and skill, than all yon starry universe.

With the earth its emerald floor, its roof the sapphire firmament, the sun and stars its pendant lamps, its incense a thousand fragrant odors, its music of many sounds and instruments, the song of groves, the murmur of the streams, the voice of winged winds, the pealing thunder, and the everlasting roar of ocean, nature’s is a glorious temple!

Yet that is a nobler temple, which, with blood-redeemed saints for its living stones, and God and the Lamb for its uncreated lights, stands aloft on the Rock of Ages—the admiration of angels, and the glory of the universe.—GUTHRIE.



You have to learn to go out of convictions, out of creeds, out of experiences, until so far as your faith is concerned, there is nothing between yourself and God.

Will You Go Out Without Knowing?

Oswald Chambers
One of the difficulties in Christian work is this question - "What do you expect to do?" You do not know what you are going to do; the only thing you know is that God knows what He is doing.
He brings us to the place where He asks us to be our utmost for Him.

Let Us Keep To The Point

Oswald Chambers
Shut out every other consideration and keep yourself before God for this one thing only - My Utmost for His Highest. I am determined to be absolutely and entirely for Him and for Him alone.
Jesus expresses the essence of God in a way that we cannot misconstrue.

Magnifying Glass of Faith

Philip Yancey
In my spiritual journey as well as in my writing career I have long lingered in the margins, pondering unanswerable questions about the problem of pain, the conundrums of prayer, providence versus free will, and other such matters.
If we doubt God, or find him incomprehensible, unknowable, the very best cure is to gaze steadily at Jesus

DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Rosetta Stone

Philip Yancey
In the incarnation, God’s Son deliberately “handicapped” himself, exchanging omniscience for a brain that learned Aramaic phoneme by phoneme, omnipresence for two legs and an occasional donkey, omnipotence for arms strong enough to saw wood but too weak for self-defense.
The image of God is personhood, and personhood can function only in the context of relationships.

DAILY DEVOTIONAL

The Image of God

John MacArthur
What is the image of God? The Hebrew word for “image,” tselem, comes from a root that speaks of carving. It is the same word used to speak of graven images (Ex. 20:4). It almost seems to convey the idea that man was carved into the shape of God.
