Caring for the poor is one natural overflow and a necessary evidence of the presence of Christ in our hearts. If there is no sign of caring for the poor in our lives, then there is reason to at least question whether Christ is in our hearts.

Superficial religion consists of merely believing certain truths and doing certain things....such superficial religion is rampant in the world today.

We bask in sermons, conferences, and books that exalt a grace centering on us.

To be a Christian is to be loved by God, pursued by God, and found by God.

Nothing is impossible for the people of God who trust in the power of God to accomplish the will of God.

On popular issues like poverty and slavery, where Christians are likely to be applauded for our social action, we are quick to stand up and speak out. Yet on controversial issues like homosexuality and abortion, where Christians are likely to be criticized for our involvement, we are content to sit down and stay quiet.

The primary reward of the gospel - God himself
