To grow in your passion for what Jesus has done, increase your understanding of what He has done. Never be content with your grasp of the gospel. The gospel is life-permeating, world-altering, universe-changing truth. It has more facets than any diamond. Its depths man will never exhaust.
The gospel isn't one class among many that you'll attend during your life as a Christian—the gospel is the whole building that all the classes take place in! Rightly approached, all the topics you'll study and focus on as a believer will be offered to you 'within the walls' of the glorious gospel.Notes
Through the lens of the gospel, the Bible truly becomes one book telling one story: the story of sinful man, a holy God, and His plan of salvation through the substitution of Himself for His people.When you're bitter or unforgiving toward others, you're seeing their sins as more serious than yours against God. No sin against you can compare to the innumerable sins you've committed against God. When you understand what God has forgiven you, and how patient He's been with you, you can be forgiving and patient toward others.
