Description

Surprised by JesusWhen God in the flesh showed up twenty centuries ago in Palestine, the religious PhDs rejected him and the prostitutes and social outcasts flocked to him. Why? Because the open welcome of divine grace that Jesus offers, open to anyone who would simply leave their moral resume at home, is not predictable. It is not safe. It is subversiveIn this book, Dane Ortlund reflects on this subversive grace as it uniquely emerges in each of the four Gospel

When God-in-the-flesh showed up twenty centuries ago in Palestine, the religious PhDs rejected him and the prostitutes and social outcasts flocked to him. Why? Because the open welcome of divine grace that Jesus offers, open to anyone who would simply leave their moral resume at home, is not predictable. It is not safe. It is subversive…In this book, Dane Ortlund reflects on this subversive grace as it uniquely emerges in each of the four Gospel accounts. In each Gospel, the message and mission of Jesus is deeply surprising:

• In Matthew, we see the surprise of disobedient obedience.

• In Mark, we see the surprise of the king undergoing the fate of a criminal.

• In Luke, we see the surprise of the insiders becoming outsiders and the outsiders becoming insiders.

• In John, we see the surprise of the Creator of the universe becoming one of his own creatures.

Such surprises confound our law-marinated hearts. But the good news that Jesus won with his own blood will not be tamed. This good news is subversive. This book exists to exult in this good news and the scandalous mercy Jesus loves to pour out on needy sinners—on people like you and me.

______________

"The world wants justice and, truth to tell, the church often wants that too. In this book, Dane Ortlund makes the case from the Gospels that what the church and the world to whom she witnesses needs is grace. Grace is counterintuitive. Left to ourselves, we hate it. We see it as demeaning. We regard it as witnessing to our moral corruption and weakness. Yet grace is God’s way of salvation as revealed in the acts and sayings of Jesus in the four Gospels. This book is that strangest of things: the heartfelt rebuke which brings so much encouragement, freedom, and joy. Well worth reading." Carl R. Trueman, Professor, Grove City College, PA

Amazing lotion for the low price.
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Great everyday lotion and an excellent value for the price. The texture is light and creamy, not greasy, and it absorbs quickly. I like the scent, though scent preference is personal. Shipping was fast. The only downside is the pump—it was difficult to open and required turning it counterclockwise, then clockwise, which was more effort than it should have been. Once it popped up, it works perfectly.

Best non greasy moisturizing lotion ever!!
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This lotion is honestly probably one of the best lotions I’ve ever used. I used it for the first time today immediately after my shower and it’s the perfect consistency not too thick or thin.. not full of water either which is good because my skin absorbs instantly! Most lotions sit on my skin and make me greasy and sweaty afterwards. It also smells like HEAVEN. Chocolaty and a hint of vanilla! I won’t be buying any other lotion this now!

Great moisturizer
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This cream is a great alternative to the more expensive name brand creams. I have ordered this a few times and I feel like it does a wonderful job keeping my skin feeling soft, nourished and moisturized until the next time I shower. I do not feel as though my skin is greasy or oily after using this product. The cream does not feel thick or heavy on my skin. I am able to put a pair of pants on comfortably after using cream without feeling sticky. The cocoa butter scent is light and not over powering. There are parts of my body that I have to avoid with the cream because I do have eczema, but this is something I have grown up with and I am used to. I have purchased the cream twice, and unfortunately, the second time I bought it the pump top came a little bit destroyed (shown in photo). The product is still fully functional and will not determine from buying this again in the future!
