Not only is holiness the goal of your redemption, it is necessary for your redemption

We walk into the future in God-glorifying confidence, not because the future is known to us but because it is known to God. And that's all we need to know. Worry about the future is not simply a character tic, it is the sin of unbelief, an indication that our hearts are not resting in the promises of God.

Our first love is Jesus. Holiness is not ultimately about living up to a moral standard. It's about living in Christ and living out of our real, vital union with him.

Don't try so hard to be hip. When the Church finds out what is cool, it is not cool anymore.

The people on this planet who end up doing nothing are those who never realized they couldn't do everything.

Live for God. Obey the Scriptures. Think of others before yourself. Be holy. Love Jesus. And as you do these things, do whatever else you like, with whomever you like, wherever you like, and you'll be walking in the will of God.

Walking in the light means we pursue obedience and are honest about our remaining darkness.
