Jesus Revolution
This book is a comprehensive look at radical Grace written in an easy-to-read style. Is the bible about Christian living or is it about Christ? Is the bible about our sacrifices for Jesus or is it about Jesus' sacrifice for us? Is the bible a self-improvement manual or is the bible a revelation of Jesus? In short, is the bible about us or is it about Jesus? If we are the center of the bible, then most books in the bible become How-to guides. We read the bible to discover how-to better our lives, how-to perform better, how-to do more and obey more. While most of these efforts are very good and commendable, the emphasis is on us doing many good works so that God will be pleased with us. But if Jesus is the center of the bible, then another picture emerges. It is now Jesus who did all the good works. God is pleased with us, not because of our works, but because of Jesus' completed work on the cross. He did it so we do not have to. It is all about Jesus. As He is holy, so are we holy. As He is good, so are we good. As He is accepted, so are we accepted. As He is victorious, so are we victorious. As He is righteous, so are we righteous. As He is alive, so are we alive. We enjoy this position because Jesus gave it to us. Because of Jesus, we enjoy the unmerited favor and blessings of God. Welcome to the Jesus Revolution!
