The dangerous assumption we unknowingly accept in the American dream is that our greatest asset is our own ability.

Live today for what is going to matter 10 billion years from today.

The modern-day gospel says, 'God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life. Therefore, follow these steps, and you can be saved.' Meanwhile, the biblical gospel says, 'You are an enemy of God, dead in your sin, & in your present state of rebellion, you are not even able to see that you need life, much less to cause yourself to come to life. Therefore, you are radically dependent on God to do something in your life that you could never do.

I am finding deep joy in depending on Christ for the guidance only He can provide as He produces the fruit of gospel in my life.

The Word of God and the Spirit of God are enough for the people of God to enjoy and spread the worship of God.

The price is certainly high for people who don’t know Christ and who live in a world where Christians shrink back from self-denying faith and settle into self-indulging faith. While Christians choose to spend their lives fulfilling the American dream instead of giving their lives to proclaiming the kingdom of God, literally billions in need of the Gospel remain in the dark

The Bible clearly reminds us that left to ourselves, we would be lost forever.
