What we need is not more learning, not more eloquence, not more persuasion, not more organization, but more power from the Holy Spirit.

We do not need to wait for the Holy Spirit to come: he came on the day of Pentecost. He has never left the church.

There is no biblical Christianity without the cross at its center.

Christianity is in its very essence a resurrection religion. The concept of resurrection lies at its heart. If you remove it, Christianity is destroyed.

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

God sacrifices himself for man and puts himself where only man deserves to be.

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