The shift occurred when the realization began to spread through the room that if forgiveness does not work in the extreme, it doesn’t work in the common. The blood of Jesus is enough for everything.

Focusing on the cause of the wound, as logical as that may seem, never solves the problem. The only solution is finding a way to settle the debt caused by wounds historically inflicted. Which means the only solution is the Cross of Jesus Christ.

No one who receives the justice they demand ever finds peace. Ever! Why? Peace doesn’t come through justice. True peace only comes through the injustice of the Cross.
