Pastor Simmons ask whether we are living by these great principles or are in need of a second reformation.

Grace: Why We No Longer Fear A Fearsome God
What does the younger brother expect o find when he returns home to his Father? An angry Dad, and rightly so. But something has changed. The expected anger has been transformed into love and acceptance. The anger of God, while qualitatively different than human anger is both real and important, for it undergirds the reality of justice. At the cross though, Jesus met the demands of holy justice, paid the price for human sin, and the deserved anger of God is transformed into love and acceptance. God is fearsome, but not feared, for the perfect love of the cross casts out all fear and punishment.
