By revealing himself, God wishes to make [men] capable of responding to Him, and of knowing Him, and of loving Him far beyond their own natural capacity.”
God makes capable…beyond our capacity. In Adam’s fall, we have all fallen into a deep pit, as it were, and cannot get out of it on our own. ‘…Who redeems your life from the pit.’ Psalm 103:2.
Whatever adjective is used to describe God’s gracious rescue, our being made capable is the very essence of our salvation in Christ.
Amen.
