You 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.

If we truly long for revival, we will rejoice even when it starts at the church down the road.

On the last day, God will not acquit us because our good works were good enough, but he will look for evidence that our good confession was not phony. It’s in this sense that we must be holy.

God is not a magic eight ball we shake up and peer into whenever we have a decision to make. He is a good God who gives us brains, shows us the way of obedience, and invites us to take risks for him.

The world provides no cheerleaders on the pathway to godliness.

Here's good news: God is even more committed to your change, your growth, and your transformation than you are.

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