God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Experience satisfies only temporarily. It can never bring a lasting sense of fulfillment and purpose. Each passing experience reveals the need for another and better one.
Christ is calling His followers not to the mere theoretical opposition of injustice, but rather to the real and practical (and often painful) ministry of meeting physical needs in a dying world. The gospel life is not merely about right thinking, it is far more about right… What good is it if you say you're opposed to abortion, and yet you are not doing anything to actually help those who are dying?
