— Jonathan Edwards
All of these very similar statements boil down to a single question “Who am I?” In this cliché question rests everything about us. There is the complex analysis that we can leave to the Psychologists. Then there is the practical answer…the existential answer.
I am a crucified sinner who has died and been buried. I no longer am alive. There is only Christ. I have been forgotten.
