I thank God for David Powlison, and this piece by him shows just how much of a gift he is to the church. Such God-given Biblical wisdom and insight!
Appropriately for one who is saved by grace, the man is also loving and humble. I have a physical disability and use a wheelchair to get around much of the time. I will never forget the time when, after a church service, he got down on his knees, in the middle of the sanctuary, in order to be able to talk to me face-to-face. Everyone else in the sanctuary was standing, talking to each other. He showed no self-consciousness at all, on his knees, talking to me. He showed Christ’s love to me, in that one act, as clearly as any brother or sister ever has.
Thank you for sharing Powlison’s startling poetic contrast, so true to reality. I’m reminded of C.S. Lewis’ words, “Hell is that moment when God says to the rebellious sinner, ‘Alright then, have it your way.’”
