What does God expect us to do with the fact that Christ died for our sins and rose again?
God expects us to believe the truth that Christ died for our sins and rose from the dead. When we believe with all our heart, God opens our ability to believe, comes in, makes us a new person, and enables us to comprehend these things.
Les teaches that when Scripture says Christ died for your sins and rose from the dead, God expects us to believe it. When we believe it with all our heart, God opens up our whole ability to believe. He comes in, makes us a new person, and these things become easy to comprehend, which before were so hard to comprehend. The surrounding context also speaks of God’s mercy upon all—Jew and Gentile, the whole human race—and of the depth and riches of both the wisdom and knowledge of God, whose judgments are unsearchable and ways past finding out.
