00:00:00.000 Hey guys, real quick, before we get started, I have a small request.
00:00:03.360 If you've been blessed by our content and you like this show,
00:00:06.420 would you take just a brief moment and leave us a five-star review?
00:00:09.760 This is quite possibly the most effective thing that you can do
00:00:12.860 to ensure that this content gets out to as many people as possible.
00:00:17.520 Thanks.
00:00:19.680 Jesus said,
00:00:20.800 Man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
00:00:25.440 You're listening to Daily Truth.
00:00:30.000 the penalty for our failure paid by Christ.
00:00:36.220 But the shame of our failure, we will experience.
00:00:41.680 There will be no mourning in heaven.
00:00:44.640 He will wipe away every tear.
00:00:47.320 And although it may be temporary,
00:00:50.060 it will still be painful nonetheless.
00:00:53.220 Jonathan Edwards, what he's getting at is this,
00:00:56.360 that the grace of God through Jesus Christ,
00:00:58.460 the gospel is a powerful motivator towards holiness. And the holiness and judgment of God
00:01:06.040 and our impending death is also a powerful motivator towards holiness. Let us not be so naive.
00:01:16.180 Let us not be so narrow that we accept one motivation while rejecting the other.
00:01:22.820 Are we gospel-centered? Yes. Is the gospel a strong wind in our sails, propelling us towards
00:01:31.320 a life of holiness? Yes. But is the holiness of God himself and the fact that each one of us
00:01:40.240 one day will stand before him and that everything in our hearts will be laid bare, is that also
00:01:47.060 a great motivation for us to put sin to death
00:01:50.320 in this life by grace?
00:01:52.460 Yes, we should remember both.
00:01:55.580 Thanks so much for listening.
00:01:56.860 But real quick, before you go,
00:01:58.800 do us a small favor, take a moment,
00:02:00.640 and leave us a five-star review if you enjoyed the show.
00:02:04.060 This is undoubtedly the best way
00:02:06.400 that you can help us get this biblically faithful content
00:02:09.300 to as many people as possible.
00:02:11.460 Thanks so much.
