We must allow the Word of God to confront us, to disturb our security, to undermine our complacency and to overthrow our patterns of thought and behavior.

When the Christian loses himself, he finds himself, he discovers his true identity.

Our claim is that God has revealed Himself by speaking; that this divine (or God-breathed) speech has been written down and preserved in Scripture; and that Scripture is, in fact, God's Word written, which therefore is true and reliable and has divine authority over men.

Don't neglect your critical faculties. Remember that God is a rational God, who has made us in His own image. God invites and expects us to explore His double revelation, in nature and Scripture, with the minds He has given us, and to go on in the development of a Christian mind to apply His marvellous revealed truth to every aspect of the modern and post-modern world.

Christian giving is to be marked by self-sacrifice and self-forgetfuln ess, not by self-congratula tion.

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

The symbol of the religion of Jesus is the cross, not the scales.
