Knowledge is indispensable to Christian life and service. If we do not use the mind that God has given us, we condemn ourselves to spiritual superficiality and cut ourselves off from many of the riches of God’s grace.

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.

The overriding reason why we should take other people's cultures seriously is because God has taken ours seriously.

God does not love us because Christ died for us; Christ died for us because God loved us.

Biblical righteousness is more than a private and personal affair; it includes social righteousness as well....Thus Christians are committed to hunger for righteousness in the whole human community as something pleasing to a righteous God.

A Christian should resemble a fruit tree with real fruit, not a Christmas tree with decorations tied on

Good works are indispensable to salvation - not as its ground or means, however, but as its consequence and evidence.
