God Thinking XI - Tough Truths 10

"Here’s where people get mixed up.  It was God’s intended will that you live forever, on earth, in perfect health.  But within the bounds of freewill, Adam sinned, thereby altering forever the perfect plan of God for (Adam’s) children.

If not for the work of Christ on the cross, can I say that none of us would have a prayer.  God’s grace is sufficient for the faithful.

You must stop craving for God to bail you out every time you foolishly disobey Him.  Your desire should be, must be, to know Him, to worship Him, to Praise Him and to trust Him implicitly."
