The modern way with God is to set him at a distance, if not to deny him altogether; and the irony is that modern Christians, preoccupied with maintaining religious practices in an irreligous world, have themselves allowed God to become remote...for churchmen who look at God through the wrong end of the telescope, so reducing him to pigmy proportions, cannot hope to end up as more than pigmy Christians.
J. I. PackerThe measure of all love is its giving. The measure of the love of God is the cross of Christ.
J. I. PackerWisdom is the power to see, and the inclination to choose, the best and highest goal, together with the surest means of attaining it.
J. I. PackerNot until we have become humble and teachable, standing in awe of God's holiness and sovereignty...a cknowledging our own littleness, distrusting our own thoughts, and willing to have our minds turned upside down, can divine wisdom become ours.
J. I. PackerThe Son of God came to seek us where we are in order that he might bring us to be with him where he is.
