 Ben was mistaken by Raymond A. Foss
In a land of thinkers, of revolutionaries breaking free of an empire, needing their wits their guile, to hide behind trees, rocks, rather than being in the open The concept might have made sense - “God helps those who help themselves”; but Ben was wrong; he missed the point We are as Adam, as Lot, as David, as Paul doing that which we hate, living of the world dying in sin; rising by faith, by grace alone By grace we are given hope, our works pale in comparison Clay only on the potter’s wheel by His hands alone worthy vessels By grace we give grace to others July 20, 2008 Romans 5:1-5 and Sermon by Rev.
