Because Jesus Was Born

Justin Taylor linked to this piece by John Piper and Sam Crabtree, which is worth reading and thinking about. The list could be multiplied.

Out of the ivory palaces,
Into a world of woe,
Only His great eternal love
Made my Savior go.
(Henry Barraclough, "Ivory Palaces")

    "OUT OF THE IVORY PALACES!!! INTO A WORLD FULL OF SIN!!!"


    stupid song still runs thru my head all these years later....
