Amen, Darrel. The cross is the pinnacle of the Gospel, and our faith hinges on our being freely justified by His grace. Some say salvation is so simple, yet while that may be true in so much that it takes the faith of a child to believe, the means by which God saves us is entirely comprehensive. Just think about all of the aspects of salvation: election, calling, regeneration, conversion, justification, adoption, sanctification, preservation, glorification! And all of these are graces from our amazing God and Savior. Truly, it is the Spirit alone that can bring us understanding, and that too is a marvelous and humbling grace.
