Understanding Christianity

In Luke 18:18-30, Jesus encounters the rich young ruler. His trust in his riches made him anxious and lacking assurance. Suprisingly, Jesus crushes him with the Law to expose his idolatry. In this passage, we see the clear teaching of the distinction between Law and Gospel. We also see the necessity for our sovereign God to do a supernatural, impossible work of grace to bring a dead sinner alive in Christ. www.seancole.net
