Something to Think About:Aren’t you grateful for Paul’s confession? He, of all people, couldn’t keep the Law. Nobody can. Our efforts of trying to establish our own righteousness collapse like a cheap tent. Our Celebrate Recovery ministry builds upon the premise that all of us have “hurts, habits and hang-ups.” Confessing our need is a huge step toward ending shame and receiving healing. Is there a confession you need to make? Who can you talk to about your struggles? How are you at being a safe person for others?
Excerpt from the Sermon Journal, Monday, July 22, 2019Written by Pastor Tom Harrison
Raised with Christ: Enough is Enough
I agree with Psalm 19 — the Law of the Lord is perfect, sure and right. However, the Law (i.e. the rules) can remind me of a “tattletale.” After we mess up (i.e. sin), the Law runs off and tells God we’ve been bad. The evidence is indisputable
– we ARE guilty. The Law is for our benefit, but nobody can keep it. The Law is like a parent, teacher, coach, boss, etc., telling us we are not good enough and don’t measure up. Paul tried so hard to keep the Law that he led in persecuting Christians because he thought they no longer were obeying the Law. His zeal was unenlightened. Until he became a follower of Jesus, he didn’t understand he was BOTH self-righteous and unrighteous.
It is hard to believe Paul wrote this chapter. After his conversion it seemed he always had it together. We see some of his struggles here (also in 2 Timothy 4). It’s comforting knowing even the greatest among us have “feet of clay.” His strong deliverer was Jesus. In his famous “thorn in the flesh” passage (2 Corinthians 12), Paul explains that God’s grace is sufficient in our weakness. This is a wonderful introduction to one of the greatest chapters in the Bible, Romans 8. Enough Law and sin is enough. Enough of God’s grace is also enough. Enough is enough in more ways than one.
