“We have to realize that for all of us, by nature, this is where we start in our interpretation of reality. We are the center of the universe, legislating for ourselves good and evil, truth and error, life and death. However, from this perspective everything is upside down. It is not because God is a control freak, but because he is in fact God and we are not that we must surrender our claim to interpret anything properly as autonomous individuals. We interpret sin as normal, pride as a virtue, and selfishness as inevitable for getting what we want out of life. It is a measure of God’s lavish generosity that he does not let this charade continue. It is because of his grace that God will not allow us to determine the questions any more than the answers. Michael Horton “Gospel-Driven Life.”
