“Many of us here today can say: “I was running that way as fast as I could go. I was destroying my life. I was ensnared in food and alcohol, in drugs, in pornography and sexual impurity, destroying my life and many people around me, living a life of deception and bondage. And one day, I saw a man hanging in agony and shame like some Haman, hanging on a pole impaled under the king’s wrath. But I came to understand that He was hanging for my forgiveness. He was hanging under God’s judgment that you and I might stand in the judgment. He was condemned so I might go free.”
