D.A. Carson on the Supremacy of Christ and Love

I'm listening to this sermon delivered by D.A. Carson at Desiring God's recent national conference on postmodernism. He has several good analogies and shows his vast array of Johannine knowledge in John 17, but the best part for me so far has been the story of his Pakistani Muslim friend.

That story makes me want to speak up more for the name of Jesus in public places, and God is using Carson's exposition of John 17 to give me life by His Word. Check out the whole thing, it's worth the time invested.

One quote from D.A.:

"Before we start thinking of God's love for us, or Christ's love for us on the cross, we must think of the eternal Father's love for the Son, and the love of the Son for the Father, so that whatever the Father does the Son does, and the Son does whatever the Father has for Him to do, which of course issues in Gethsemane itself."
