Jesus sees our sin more clearly than anyone, yet He loves us more than anyone.
Notorious sinners didn’t kill Jesus. Religious people did.
Jesus is not your accuser. He’s not your prosecutor. He’s not your judge. He’s your friend and your rescuer. Like Zacchaeus, just spend time with Jesus. Don’t hide from him in shame or reject him in self-righteousness. Don’t allow the opinions of other people to shape your concept of him. Get to know him for yourself, and let the goodness of God change you from the inside out.
Jesus didn’t care about the scandal. He cared about the scandalous.
Our righteousness doesn't depend on our present performance but on Jesus' finished performance.
Don't you know you are the only Jesus many people will ever see? In compromising your lifestyle, you forfeit your capacity to accurately reflect God's image and endanger an entire generation's understanding of Jesus.
You don’t have to be good to be Jesus’s friend. You just have to be honest.
Don't cheapen Jesus's sacrifice by trying to pay him back
I think if Jesus had one shot at fixing us, He’d tell us how much He loves us. Jesus loves us right now, just as we are. He isn’t standing aloof, yelling at us to climb out of our pits and clean ourselves up so we can be worthy of Him. He is wading waist-deep into the muck of life, weeping with the broken, rescuing the lost, and healing the sick.
Grace is a person. And his name is Jesus.
Sometimes we are outright rude when we interact with people. We meet a gay guy or a couple living together, and we think we have the obligation and right to warn them what God thinks about their sexuality on our first meeting. As if their sex life is the first thing on God's agenda.It's not.Love is. Grace is. Mercy is. Jesus is.
Make rules and follow rules as needed, but don't focus on riles. Focus on faith. Focus on grace. Focus on Jesus.
If we could get people to think about Jesus, we reasoned, Jesus was more than able to reveal himself to them.
A moment with Jesus changed everything.
Are you struggling with sin? You don’t need more will power. You need more of Jesus.
Christianity is not about not swearing. It’s not about not having impure thoughts. Really, it’s not about not at all. Christianity is about Jesus.
