However, my mouth is on fire.

Cooking shows usually aren't inspiration for me in any form, but I was reminded of Grace in Practice by one of them recently.  In this version of reality TV, chefs submit their creations to judges to be praised or scathed.  One particular contribution garnered several compliments from a judge; the buildup couldn't have taken more than thirty seconds, but the praises were a pretty significant ego-boost.

Then he terminated by saying, "However, my mouth is on fire."  This is the classic setup for gospel to law.  It is the sort of eternal "Yes, but" that we are so used to hearing.  In the gospel this is not so:

For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, whom we proclaimed among you, Silvanus and Timothy and I, was not Yes and No, but in him it is always Yes. For all the promises of God find their Yes in him. That is why it is through him that we utter our Amen to God for his glory (2Co 1.19,20).
