We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

How can you provoke your child into anger (Eph. 6:24)?... Here are some easy steps: 1. Spoil him. 2. Give him everything he wants, even more than you can afford. Just charge it so you can get him off your back. 3. When he does wrong, nag him a little but don’t spank him. 4. Foster his dependence on you. Don’t teach him to be independently responsible. Maintain his dependence on you so later drugs and alcohol can replace you when he’s older. 5. Protect him from all those mean teachers who want to discipline him from time to time. And threaten to sue them if they don’t let him alone. 6. Make all of his decisions for him because he might make mistakes and learn from them if you don’t. 7. Criticize his father to him, or his mother, so your son or daughter will lose respect for his parents. 8. Whenever he gets into trouble, bail him out. Besides if he faces any real consequence, it might hurt your reputation. 9. Never let him suffer the consequences of his behavior. Always step in and solve his problems for him so he will depend on you and run to you when the going gets tough and never learn how to solve his problems. 10. If you want to turn your child into a delinquent, let him express himself anyway he feels like it. 11. Don't run his life, let him run yours. 12. Don't bother him with chores. Do everything for him then he can be irresponsible all his life and blame others when things don’t get done right. 13. Be sure to give in when he throws a temper tantrum. 14. Believe his lies because it’s too much hassle to try to sort through to get the truth. 15. Criticize others openly; criticize others routinely so that he will continue to realize that he is better than everybody else. 16. Give him a big allowance and don’t make him do anything for it. 17. Praise him for his good looks, never for character.
John MacArthur

But why is faith the means of justification? Simply because it is the action of union with Jesus Christ. Faith is our coming to Him, our trusting Him, our resting in Him. The moment we are united to Him, we are immediately endowed with all that He has secured for us. We are immediately justified before we have done a single good deed, because we are His and He is God's. Just as a very poor woman is a very poor woman until the very moment that she marries a wealthy man. But at the moment that she becomes his wife, she becomes a wealthy woman. It is by means of her acceptance that she becomes a wealthy woman, but her acceptance does not make her a wealthy woman; it is her husband's wealth that makes her so. So faith does not justify; Christ justifies. But faith is the act of union with Christ.
