For those who have asked, I freely confess that Jesus Christ is my personal Savior, and that I seek His guidance in all that I do.
Is the distinction between living for Christ and dying for Him so great? Is not the second the logical conclusion of the first?
Christ lived the life we could not live and took the punishment we could not take to offer the hope we cannot resist.
Just as you did not come to Christ on your own, neither will you remain in Christ on your own.
There may be some sins of which a man cannot speak, but there is no sin which the blood of Christ cannot wash away.
You will never have a better friend than a friend who points you to Christ.
Should anyone knock at my heart and say, 'Who lives here?' I should reply, 'Not Martin Luther, but the Lord Jesus Christ.'
To become who we are as creatures made in the image and likeness of God, we have to be nothing and everything at once, since this is what God is. ... If we accept who we are, we are manifesting God and radiating Christ. The latter unfolding of the divine life within us does not need to go anywhere or do anything special.
I entrust this Twenty-second World Day of the Sick to the intercession of Mary. I ask her to help the sick to bear their sufferings in fellowship with Jesus Christ and to support all those who care for them. To all the ill, and to all the health-care workers and volunteers who assist them, I cordially impart my Apostolic Blessing.
The Bible talks plentifully about joy, but it nowhere talks about a 'happy Christian.' Happiness depends on what happens; joy does not. Remember, Jesus Christ had joy, and He prayed 'that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.'
If I were to go to heaven, and find that Christ was not there, I would leave immediately; for heaven without Christ would be hell to me.

If any man is not sure that he is in Christ, he ought not to be easy one moment until he is sure. Dear friend, without the fullest confidence as to your saved condition, you have no right to be at ease, and I pray you may never be so. This is a matter too important to be left undecided.
Not only do we know God by Jesus Christ alone, but we know ourselves only by Jesus Christ. We know life and death only through Jesus Christ. Apart from Jesus Christ, we do not know what is our life, nor our death, nor God, nor ourselves.
One is not righteous who does much, but the one who, without work, believes much in Christ. The law says, 'Do this,' and it is never done. Grace says, 'Believe in this,' and everything is already done.
If you are looking for truth, stick to the Way - for the truth is the Way. The truth is the destination to which you are going, and it is the Way by which you go. You are not going by one thing as your way to something else as your destination; you are not coming to Christ by something that is other than Christ. You are coming to Christ through Christ.
The Bible is one book, written by one Author, with one subject: Jesus Christ and the salvation God...provides through Him.
The love of God is not something vague or generic; the love of God has a name and a face: Jesus Christ.
Let's commit ourselves to being true disciples of Jesus Christ. Not mere fair-weather followers, but disciples.
This is the mystery of the riches of divine grace for sinners; for by a wonderful exchange our sins are now not ours but Christ's, and Christ's righteousness is not Christ's but ours.
The most important thing is the first proclamation: Jesus Christ has saved you.
Put your shoulders back, hold your head up high knowing that the same power that raised Christ from the dead lives on the inside of you.
Our Christian hope is that we are going to live with Christ in a new earth, where there is not only no more death, but where life is what it was always meant to be.
To deny oneself is to be aware only of Christ and no more of self, to see only Him who goes before and no more the road which is too hard for us. Once more, all that self-denial can say is, 'He leads the way, keep close to Him.'
When we get bumped - we spill what we are full of - Be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
