Word:

For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. Rom. 10:4 

“Christ is the end of the law=of seeking to establish one’s own righteousness, so that there may be a righteousness for everyone who believes. Christ ended the law AS A WAY OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, as a way to be acceptable to God.” Tim Keller

So, yes,  we must strive to improve ourselves and push ourselves and each other physically; however, we cannot strive to be better or make ourselves worthy of salvation, only Christ can do that, and He did..on the cross. His salvation is by grace through faith alone..no striving necessary.

YHC took us out..then flew home to get to the shower as close to 6:23 a.m. as possible.

Terrific group of guys..and honor and a pleasure!
