00:00:00 In less than a year, our podcast has gone from an average of 10,000 downloads a month
00:00:04 to 50,000 downloads. What made the difference? You leaving us a five-star review. The more
00:00:10 positive reviews, the more the algorithm picks us up, and more people are confronted by the law
00:00:16 and gospel of Jesus Christ. Help us press forward the crown rights of King Jesus by leaving us a
00:00:23 five-star review on your favorite podcast platform. Thanks. Now, the reality is for all those who are
00:00:30 in Christ Jesus, you have been forgiven of all your sin. And in all our cases, our sin is much.
00:00:36 In the objective sense, there's not one Christian who has ever been forgiven little. All have been
00:00:41 forgiven much. But again, Jesus is speaking to the perception, the subjective sense. Those who
00:00:49 recognize. Sure, you've all been forgiven much, but not all of us recognize the full depth of
00:00:56 that forgiveness. And the reason why we miss the sheer magnitude of God's grace in the gospel
00:01:01 is because we miss how holy God is and how sinful we are. If you miss God's holiness and you miss
00:01:10 man's sinfulness, you miss Christ's forgiveness. And the irony is that the forgiveness of Christ
00:01:18 his assurance of pardon, the gospel of free grace is the very wind in our sails that drives us
00:01:25 towards obedience to God's law in its third use. The person who is following the light to their
00:01:31 path and the lamp to their feet, that's a person who's radically been changed and impacted by the
00:01:37 free grace of Jesus and the forgiveness of sins. The reason why we always say David was a man after
00:01:45 god's own heart despite his sin with besheba no no david was a man after god's own heart precisely
00:01:51 because of his sin with besheba that sin along with a litany of others it's not the only one
00:01:58 but it's profound sins like that that made david cling so closely to christ
00:02:04 it's not that he loved god despite his sin he loved god for his forgiveness in light of his sin
00:02:13 like the woman who's using her tears
00:02:16 to wash the feet of Jesus and her hair to dry.
00:02:20 She does this, why?
00:02:22 Because her sins are many 1.00
00:02:23 and she knows her sins are many.
00:02:31 But there's something there.
00:02:32 There's an application there
00:02:34 because that woman, her sins in one sense 1.00
00:02:37 were no more many than the sins
00:02:40 of the religious rulers of Jesus' day. 0.69
00:02:43 In fact, you could argue in some sense, perhaps even less.
00:02:47 At least she didn't have the sin of self-righteousness.
00:02:51 These other guys, Jesus even says, you did nothing for me.
00:02:55 You've exercised no real hospitality.
00:02:58 I came into your house.
00:03:00 You gave me nothing.
00:03:03 You didn't wash my feet.
00:03:04 But since she's entered the room, she has not ceased to weep
00:03:07 and wash my feet with her tears and dry them with her hair.
00:03:10 her sins are many now jesus is telling them to their face so are yours namely the sin you're
00:03:19 committing right now by ignoring the messiah the sin you're committing right now by your arrogance 0.80
00:03:24 pride and self-righteousness so there's a very real sense in which these pharisees and sadducees 0.95
00:03:31 are just as sinful as the woman perhaps even more but why is she so profoundly broken by her sin 0.91
00:03:38 and therefore driven in her worship of the Savior
00:03:41 because she had the sins that were despised of the day.
00:03:47 She had the sins that all of society agreed on were sinful.
00:04:08 We'll be right back.
