Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

Implications of Jesus' Active Obedience
Great tweets from Paul Tripp today (11/20/2012) on the implications of Jesus' active obedience:
Jesus not only bore the penalty for our sin, he satisfied the requirement of our righteousness so we would be accepted with God forever.
Every thought, desire, choice, word and action of Jesus was lived on your behalf so you could stand before God with a record that is clear.
Jesus did it all so that in your failure to do what God commands you would be greeted with mercy and not judgment.
