Worldliness is whatever makes sin look normal and righteousness look strange.

There is no way to work your way to God. There is no way to climb up to heaven. There is only one way, and that is through Christ.

Being a child of God means confidence, but it never means complacency.

When "everything is awesome" we may miss what (and Who) is truly deserving of awe.

The finality of Christs redemption for us is intimately tied to the finality of his revelation to us. . . . If we say revelation is not complete, we must admit that somehow the work of redemption also remains unfinished. . . . Scripture is enough because the work of Christ is enough. They stand or fall together.

The world provides no cheerleaders on the pathway to godliness.

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