Worth repeating from the Twitterverse

Here are some tweets from the last week by people I am following:

“The radical sacrifice of the cross was necessary because we have no capacity whatsoever to be righteous on our own.” – Paul David Tripp

“Since forgiveness has been granted it makes no sense to ease your conscience by minimizing your wrongs or shifting the blame.” – Paul David Tripp
