If you find yourself mistreated, misunderstood, and mocked as a Christian, take heart, for so they did to the Christ.
Kevin DeYoungGod did not send a concept, an idea, or a virtue. He sent his Son. Follow the God of love, not love as your god.
Kevin DeYoungGod does have a specific plan for our lives, but it is not one that He expects us to figure out before we make a decision.
Kevin DeYoungYou can think too highly of your interpretations of Scripture, but you cannot think too highly of Scriptures interpretation of itself. You can exaggerate your authority in handling the Scriptures, but you cannot exaggerate the Scriptures authority to handle you. You can use the word of God to come to wrong conclusions, but you cannot find any wrong conclusions in the word of God.
