WHAT WE STAND ON
Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose the third day, and that is the ground under everything on this channel. No man cleans himself up first — we are saved by grace through faith, not by anything we produced. It is his kindness that leads a man to repentance, and repentance is required, because it is how a man receives that grace.
