Quote of the Week: Phillips

Because of the finished work of Jesus Christ, our sins do not keep us from the Holy God. It is true that sins affect us. They will, for instance, keep us from enjoying our fellowship with God. But our access to God is secured forever through Jesus Christ because of His finished and sufficient work. The Spirit's work within us reminds us that we are now in fellowship with God and imparts to us the knowledge of His grace.
Richard Phillips, Hebrews, pg 293
For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!” The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God
