1 " Could you wash Judas’s feet? "
― Charles Martin , What If It's True?: A Storyteller’s Journey with Jesus
2 " He elbows his way—blindly—through the crowd. People are ushering him forward. “Hurry, He’s calling you. He’s very busy.” Bartimaeus bounces forward like a pinball. Feet shuffling. Steps uncertain. Note the context: Jesus is on His way to Jerusalem. To the cross. Where He is going to redeem His people from the curse. He knows this. He is walking straight toward His own execution, and yet for some illogical and inexplicable reason He stops to talk with the blind, smelly beggar living under a curse. "
3 " If you're having trouble making a distinction between the voices in your head, let me put it this way: there are two sources of supernatural power on this earth. Jesus and satan. If what you're hearing does not come from Jesus, then by definition, it does come from satan. "
4 " Sin requires blood. I can’t explain why. It just is. Somewhere in here, I came to grips with the beautiful, tender, magnificent, barbaric, soul-shattering, eternal, unequivocal reality that the birth, life, and death of this innocent boy and magnificent Man are simply my King’s first step from throne to trough to cross to tomb to hell to God’s right hand. As a result, I am blood bought. Blood washed. And blood redeemed. "
