"...story about a wealthy Englishman who bought a Rolls-Royce, the car
Rolls-Royce was built as the car that would never ever ever break down. As so
he bought this car at a hefty price, and he was driving it one day actually in
France, and the car broke down. And so he called Rolls-Royce and said, 'uh,
well the car you said would never break down has broken down.' And what they
did immediately was put a mechanic on a plane and flew him to France, fix the
car as fast as they could, and the mechanic flew back and the guy drove on. The
guy expected to receive a bill. It's not often that someone will send a
mechanic to you to fix your car and fly him back, so he's a wealthy man and
could pay his bill, but the bill wasn't coming, so he called Rolls-Royce and he
said, 'listen, I'd like to get this behind and pay my bill.' And the people at
Rolls-Royce told that man, 'we're sorry sir, but we have absolutely no record
of anything having gone wrong with your car.'
YES! To think that the Holy God
of the universe has looked upon your life and my life based on the suffering
servant and He pronounces, 'I have absolutely no record of anything ever having
gone wrong in your life.' That is a scandal. Scandalous mercy."
