Grace is the love of God shown to the unlovely. It is God reaching downward to people who are in rebellion against him.

The gospel is not only the most important message in all of history; it is the only essential message in all of history.

Biblical love is not emotions or feelings, but attitudes and actions that seek the best interests of the other person, regardless of how we feel toward him.

If there is not at least a yearning in our hearts to live a holy life pleasing to God, we need to seriously question whether our faith in Christ is genuine.

It is our response to our circumstances rather than the degree of difficulty that determines whether or not we are discontent

We insist that God must surely lead everyone as we believe He has led us. We refuse to allow God the freedom to deal with each of us as individuals. When we think like that, we are legalistic.

Every day of our Christian experience should be a day of relating to God on the basis of His grace alone. We are not only saved by grace, but we also live by grace every day.
