There’s another aspect, and this is the aspect that I think the writer who said, “There’s a man in the glory, but the church has lost sight of Him,” and I think that what he had in mind is the present ministry of Christ. Now He today has a ministry, and that ministry can be expressed like this: He died down here to save us; He lives up there to keep us saved. He has a ministry today—a ministry of intercession, a ministry of shepherding, a ministry of disciplining His church. And He is still at God’s right hand, still interested in the church, and He’s available for you today.

Allow grace to revolutionize your own life through these seven lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.
