Why the name "bLog in Your Own Eye"?
Matthew 7:3 - 5 "Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when there is the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye."
We should all endeavor to think rightly about ourselves and graciously about one another. We all have specks and logs in our eyes.
The Cross
In my Sunday School class, we're going through the book Outrageous Mercy by William P. Farley. It is a must read. It focuses on how the cross is so important in our Christian faith. Here are two quotes that I like very much.
"No theology is genuinely Christian which does not arise from and focus on the cross." - Martin Luther
"The cross is more than a symbol connecting two Christians in a hostile environment. It is the heart and soul of our faith." - William P. Farley (Outrageous Mercy)
