If we love our neighbor we shall without doubt tell him the good news of Jesus. But equally if we truly love our neighbor we shall not stop there.

Faith's only function is to receive what grace offers.

Instead of inflicting upon us the judgment we deserved, God in Christ endured it in our place.

Our Christian life began not with our decision to follow Christ but with God's call to us to do so.

Do we claim to believe in God? He's a missionary God. You tell me you're committed to Christ. He's a missionary Christ. Are you filled with the Holy Spirit? He's a missionary Spirit. Do you belong to the church? It's a missionary society. And do you hope to go to heaven when you die? It's a heaven into which the fruits of world mission have been and will be gathered.

There is something inherently inappropriate about cherishing small ambitions for God.

Christians who neglect the Bible simply do not mature.
