A Living Hope
Notes
Transcript
Man sitting in restaurant talking with Jesus. Thinks he is good enough. Jesus asks for business card. Then asks who is best person you can think of (Mother Theresa) put her at top of card. Who is worst person? (Hitler) writes at bottom of card. Now . . . where are you.
Now if we were to put that card at the bottom of the Sears Tower, the top of the tower would represent God's standard of holiness. By comparison, Mother Theresa is not much closer than Hitler!
