Luke 12:49
I came to send fire on the earth, and
how I wish it were already kindled!
If any human life can stand
before God on its own basis, Calvary is much ado about nothing. If it can be proved that rationalism is
the basis of human life, then the New Testament is nonsense; instead of its
being a revelation, it is a cunningly devised fable… If we can stand before God
apart from Jesus Christ, we have proved that Calvary is not needed. As soon as Jesus Christ comes in, He
produces havoc because the whole world system is arrayed against His
redemption. It was the world
system of His day, and particularly the religious system, that killed the Son
of God.
