I'm a wretch, who, by His glorious grace, has been adopted by the God of the universe. Praise Jesus from coming in the flesh and dying on the cross for the sins of the world to redeem fallen humanity to God. I'm seeking God in all I do, trying to be led by the Spirit-- seeking first His kingdom and His righteousness.
Simone Weil was a twentieth-century French theologian, philosopher and activist who was always in the move intellectually and engaging, if sometimes clumsily, in the justice issues of her day. She provocatively claimed that we must love truth more than we love Christ.
She loved Christ; this was her way of saying that truth should lead us to love the true Christ. Too often people who love Christ allow him to be shaped so that they end up loving neither the true Christ nor the truth. I want to love both. I want honest faith.
