The modern Christian does not object to my telling what they need, or my telling what they should do or be, but they can't understand me when I tell them what they are in Christ. They think I am bringing a new philosophy, a beautiful error, that will lead them astray.
I remember when I first saw this, I said, "If this were only true," and then I said, "If I knew how to make it mine."
I didn't know that it was mine.
I didn't know that "He had blessed me with every spiritual blessing in Christ" and when I read it , it didn't register.
... That everything that the Father wrought in Christ in His Great Substitution belongs to the individual believer.
It makes no difference whether the believer is educated or uneducated; whether he is rich or poor, the boundless grace unveiled in Christ belongs to every one of us.
-- E. W. Kenyon
