The Bible isnโt about people trying to discover God, but about God reaching out to find us.
John Stott...The first and great evidence of our walking by the Spirit or being filled with the Spirit is not some private mystical experience of our own, but our practical relationships of love with other people.
John StottThe modern world detests authority but worships relevance. Our Christian conviction is that the Bible has both authority and relevance, and that the secret of both is Jesus Christ
John StottThe overriding reason why we should take other people's cultures seriously is because God has taken ours seriously.
John StottSin and the child of God are incompatible. They may occasionally meet; they cannot live together in harmony
John StottFaith, Hope & Love. Faith is directed towards God, love towards others (both within the Christian fellowship and beyond it) and hope towards the future, in particular, the glorious coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Similarly, faith rests of the past; love works in the present; hope looks to the future. Every Christian without exception is a believer, a lover and a hoper. Faith, hope and love are three sure evidences of regeneration by the Holy Spirit.
