CQOD: 06/02/07 -- Spurgeon: law and grace

Christian Quotation of the Day

June 2, 2007Meditation:
    When the teachers of the law who were Pharisees saw him eating with the "sinners" and tax collectors, they asked his disciples: "Why does he eat with tax collectors and 'sinners'?" On hearing this, Jesus said to them, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."
    -- Mark 2:16,17 (NIV)

Quotation:
    The law is for the self-righteous, to humble their pride: the gospel is for the lost, to remove their despair.
    ... Charles H. Spurgeon (1834-1892), "All of Grace"

Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, You have shown me my sin and my redemption.
