The Gospel is good news of mercy to the undeserving. The symbol of the religion of Jesus is the cross, not the scales.
From Philippians 2:8-9: “He humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death—even death on a cross. Therefore God exalted Him even more highly and gave Him the name that is above every other name.”
John Stott (1921-2011) was an English preacher and Christian theologian. During his years in the ministry, he was one of the leaders of the worldwide evangelical movement.
Love what he said about the Cross in contrast to the scales
