We find Christ in all the Scriptures. In the Old Testament He is predicted, in the Gospels He is revealed, in Acts He is preached, in the epistles He is explained, and in Revelation He is expected.
It's all about God. May He forgive us for every time we start to think it's actually all about us.
Christianity is not about how to escape from the difficulties of life - it is about how to face the difficulties of life.
Faith is not a soft option offered to people who need a crutch to get through the rest of their lives. Faith is the supernatural activity of God whereby He opens blind eyes, unstops deaf ears, and a man or a woman says- “I see it now. I get it now. I am going to trust in God. I am going to trust in Jesus.
I am weaker and more sinful than I ever before believed, but through Jesus Christ I'm more loved and accepted than I ever dared hope.
You will never have a better friend than a friend who points you to Christ.
As I am humbled by my difficulties, so I am strengthened by God's grace.
Death for the Christian is to fall asleep in the arms of Jesus and waking up and finding out that you're home.
It is in our forgiveness of other people’s sins against us that we reveal the fact that we have been truly forgiven by God.
As a result of grace, we have been saved from sin’s penalty. One day we will be saved from sin’s presence. In the meantime we are being saved from sin’s power.
There are times in our Christian life when we cannot see beyond the next step and we have to trust God.
It is impossible to serve God without serving one another.
When grace begins to rule, then our preoccupation with ourselves begins to leave.
What kind of wonderful God is this who reaches down into the lives of people, picks them up, grants them faith, and changes them!
I only need a mirror to see a sinner.
We may be confident in this: that in the pain of our suffering is the presence of a faithful God.
The great need is for us to be taught theologically, not just stirred emotionally.
The task of the teacher of the Bible is to open up what’s closed, to make plain what is obscure, to unravel what is knotted and to unfold what is tightly packed.
A Christian way of thinking is not just thinking Christian thoughts, singing Christian songs, reading Christian books, going to Christian schools; it is learning to think about the whole spectrum of life from the perspective of a mind that has been trained in truth.
The Christian will be sure to make enemies. It will be one of his objects to make none; but if doing what is right and believing what is true should cause him to lose every earthly friend, he will regard it as a small loss, since his great Friend in heaven will be even more friendly and will reveal Himself to him more graciously than ever.
Despite the obvious emphasis of Scripture (in regard to suffering), we are bombarded by suggestions that the 'successful' Christian living takes place in the realm of constant victory, health, wholeness, and financial prosperity. In response to this we are not to pretend that suffering doesn’t exist or that it might be instantly cured. Such notions are the product of empty heads and closed Bibles.
A good church is a Bible-centered church. Nothing is as important as this--not a large congregation, a witty pastor, or tangible experiences of the Holy Spirit.
You don’t know who you are until you know God and you don’t know how to live until you've settled the question of how to die.
Unfortunately, preachers who distort God's Word are all too common today. Sometimes this springs from a sincere desire to soften hard hearts, but hearts aren't changed by compromise.
We as [churches] may be lampstands, but all of the light is Christ Himself. We exist in order that He might shine through us.
