The easiest way to burn out, give up, and live in constant frustration is to believe you're responsible to make huge progress in a short time.
What a joke! Almost nobody does that.
Why? Because we're men, not gods.

You simply cannot nuance someone into the Kingdom.
There's no way to sanitize and PR the gospel into something that has no inherent offense—the aroma of death lingers to the lost no matter what soft-word-air-freshener you hang on it.
And trying is often the road to compromise.https://twitter.com/Brian_Sauve/status/1775497224992240054
I am very glad to see pastors wake up to the antinomian overcorrections of the "gospel-centered" movement.
Every sermon had to be:
The Bible says to do X.
You can't do X.
Jesus did X for you.
End of sermon.
But you don't believe the Gospel rightly until you obey Jesus.https://twitter.com/Brian_Sauve/status/1744192523592196597
