“ For when
we categorize grace into doctrines, definitions, or nice little sayings
that allow us to avoid the stuff that continues to haunt us we only
learn how to mold it around those hidden fears, guilt and shame.
No doubt much is learned in the process, but it becomes sterile.
That’s why we add stuff to Christ even while stating that nothing can
be added.”
This is the point. When we add the words of “life” or call attention to “mistakes” the gospel that Jesus finished sin is lost.
