from N.T. Wright
“Something has happened, clearly, that has unleashed this new kind of
power into the world. That something is the chain-breaking, idol-smashing,
sin-abandoning power called ‘forgiveness’, called ‘utter gracious love’, called
Jesus. It isn’t that first you have
to repent and then, as a result, God may decide not to press charges on this
occasion. It isn’t that somehow you thereby gain ‘forgiveness’ as a kind of
transaction unrelated to the truth about the wider world. It is, rather, that
forgiveness is the new reality. It is the way the creation actually is. All it
requires to belong to that new creation, with that banner over its doorway, is
that you should turn from the idols whose power (did you but know it) has
already been broken and join in the celebration of Jesus’s victory.”
Wright,
