It silently and slowly kills you without you even knowing.” Open quotation “Putting our faith in Christ is not about trying harder; it means transferring our trust away from ourselves and resting in him.” Open quotation “Religion says, ‘I obey, therefore I am accepted.’ The gospel says, ‘I am accepted, therefore I obey.’” Open quotation “Repentance is not less than feeling sorry for sin, but it is much more.” Open quotation “Sin is not just doing bad things, it is putting good things in the place of God.” Open quotation “Suffering can refine us rather than destroy us because God himself walks with us in the fire.” Open quotation “Suffering is unbearable if you aren’t certain that God is for you and with you.” Open quotation “The basic purpose of prayer is not to bend God’s will to mine, but to mold my will into his.” Open quotation “The Christian gospel is that I am so flawed that Jesus had to die for me, yet I am so loved and valued that Jesus was glad to die for me.” Open quotation “The church does not simply have a missions department; it should wholly exist to be a mission.” Open quotation “The essence of gospel-humility is not thinking more of myself or thinking less of myself, it is thinking of myself less.” Open quotation “The glory of God is available to you in the church in a way it’s not available to you anywhere else.” Open quotation Previous page · Page 355 of 402 · Next page
