Kingdom Musings

Some Kingdom "food for thought" from two dudes who are way smarter than I am.

The command "Be ye perfect" is not idealistic gas. Nor is it a command to do the impossible. He is going to make us into creatures that can obey that command.
--C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity.

To be sure, law is not the source of righteousness, but it is forever the course of righteousness...(Jesus) knew that we cannot keep the law by trying to keep the law. To succeed in keeping the law one must aim at something other and something more. One must aim to become the kind of person from whom the deeds of the law naturally flow.
--Dallas Willard, The Divine Conspiracy
