God is enough like us to understand our problems and enough above us to be able to solve them.

Conversion is essential, but it is a beginning, not an end. The believer in Jesus Christ is not simply rescued from the penalty of his sin; he is redeemed to love God and his neighbor so that others might come to know him.

God demonstrates generosity, then asks it from His people.

The faithfulness of God in the past fortifies believers for future challenges.

Common sense religion emphasizes the human contributions that are supposed to move the deity. Valid worship always begins with recognition of what God has already done.

The generous giver, demonstrating the nature of God by his behavior, can never outgive God.

No amount of human willfulness can overcome God's determined love.
