And no I’m not talking about you personally. I am talking about the only one worthy of our desire, namely, the the Son of God, our Lord and King Christ Jesus. But what makes me want Jesus? Does the desire come from some secret bank of emotions and dispositions deep within my soul that I [...]

The simple answer would be no.
Everyday people around the world are believing in an incomplete theology. People will tell you that they have a free will to choose or not choose God but then turn around and tell you they believe that God is Sovereign. This is not possible. It is either one or the other. [...]

Jesus is… existentially essential… “I am the bread of life“

And because HE paid it all we serve him out of [...]
