"Ironically, the God who identifies Himself as love has entrusted His people with the most offensive message in the world. That message is not deny yourself or take up your cross or die to self or sell all you have or live your faith radically or just do something or give until it hurts or no pain, no gain.
The message is much more offensive than any of those predictable mantras. The most offensive message in the world is simply grace. No matter how gently, lovingly, or patiently one presents it, grace offends the legalist in everyone. The central call of the uncut gospel is really a message to the Pharisee in all of us. That call is simply that Jesus has done it ALL. Get over yourself, cease from your huffing and puffing, and learn to relax in Him!"
