Sermon
Why Does God Do Nothing?
By Tim Keller
Sermon
To Revive the Spirit of the Lowly
Tim Keller | March 21, 2010
Overview
This is a text of realism. There are many promises in the Bible about the great blessings Jesus’ salvation brings. In Isaiah 57, we have a reminder that we still live in a world filled with tragedy, difficulty, and suffering.
The salvation we get from Jesus is by no means an exemption from the same brokenness that everyone else in the world is experiencing. Rather, the salvation is wonderful because it gives us the resources to face the brokenness in a way we never could without it.
In this chapter, let’s look at 1) what we face in life as Christians, 2) how we should try to face it, and 3) why we can be assured that we’ll be able to.
