150 Quotes to Celebrate 150 Years of God’s Unchanging Grace in Christ
We need to confess the sins of our society because we are part of society. No matter which society we as Christians are a part of, we are affected by it. The solutions to our society’s problems are not solved by us self-righteously viewing ourselves separate from our culture and unaffected by its sins. If Ezra had done that, he would have created a distance between himself and the people who were disobeying God’s command. By remaining a part of a society that was ignoring God’s command, he was able to pray a prayer that transformed his society. His prayer was a request for forgiveness that would touch the lives of every one of his people so that they would all change.” – Comments based on Ezra 9:6-15 (Steinmann, Is God Listening? Making Prayer a Part of Your Life, CPH, pp.66-67)
