Nine years ago we received a call to bring the Finished Work message to Madrid, Spain. We were blessed when God opened the
door for us to go in March 2006. Madrid is in need of the love of God. We saw a lot of religion there but not the love and
compassion of Christ Jesus. I thought about the religious leader in the Temple who keep the commandments of God, and the publican
who simply said; "forgive me I am a sinner". God justified the publican and not the religious leader who kept the commandments
of God. Religion is someone who is trying to get to Heaven by their own merit. Justification is by faith in the work and Person
of Jesus on the cross. (see Romans chapter 4)
