Salvation is not a prayer you pray in a one-time ceremony and then move on from; salvation is a posture of repentance and faith that you begin in a moment and maintain for the rest of your life.

If you want to be led by the Spirit of God, then devote yourself to the Word of God.

The gospel points us upward to a God who gave himself for us, backward to the price he paid for our sin, and forward to what he’s making us into.

God sometimes answers our prayers by giving us what we would have asked for had we known what He knows.

We may not be worthy to be forgiven, but He is worthy to forgive us.

Satan's primary temptation strategy is to try and make us forget what God has said about us and to evaluate our standing before God by some other criteria

My identity and my security are not in my spiritual progress. My identity and my security are in God’s acceptance of me given as a gift in Christ.
