The Cost (What's so amazing about grace?)
Philip Yancey
In the movie The Last Emperor, the young child anointed as the last emperor of China lives in a magical life of luxury with a thousand enunch servants at his command. "What happens when you do wrong?" his brother asks. "When i do wrong, someone else is punished," the boy emperor replies. To demonstrate, he breaks a jar, and one of the servants is beaten.
In Christian theology, Jesus reversed that ancient pattern : when the servants erred, the King was punished. Grace is free only because the giver himself has borne the cost.
