Now, I want to share with you out of Scripture what I learned as a result of that experience. I set my mind to find out what had been accomplished by the death of Jesus on the cross. And I want to tell you: I’m still finding out. It’s an [...]

We’ll quickly do two more aspects. Our time is beginning to run out and I want to just wrap it up in a minute. Jesus - and I’m going to say this - endured our shame that we might share His glory. If you turn to Matthew 27 you’ll find the description [...]

The next one is really part of that. But it’s such an important part, that I deal with it separately. Jesus on the cross endured our poverty, that we might share His wealth. This came to me as a revelation years ago here in New Zealand. I was [...]

Release from the Curse. And this contains truths which God has been teaching me largely, I would say, in the last five years. Truths which have revolutionized my own life and the lives of countless other people to whom I’ve been privileged to [...]
