What was once foolishness to us-a crucified God-must become our wisdom and our power and our only boast in this world.

God is on the move to rescue people from misery to everlasting happiness, which can only be found in him.

Isn't it ironic that today people say, 'If you know the love of God, you don't have to worry when you go on in sin.' But the apostle John said, 'If you know the love of God, you won't be able to go on in sin.'

Every sin flows from the failure to treasure the glory of God above all things.

We do not choose suffering simply because we are told to, but because the one who tells us to describes it as the path to everlasting joy.

The gospel of God and the love of God are expressed finally and fully in God's gift of himself for our everlasting pleasure. "In your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore."

True worship comes from people who are deeply emotional and who love deep and sound doctrine. Strong affections for God rooted in thrush are the bone and marrow of biblical worship.
