The fatal flaw of human wisdom is that it promises that you can change your relationships without needing to change yourself.

Our sin is what separates us from God, but it's our self righteousness that keeps us from running to Him for the grace He willingly gives to all who come.

Sin is much more than doing the wrong thing. It begins withloving, worshiping, and serving the wrong thing.

We, with all of our sin, weakness, and failures are welcome to do what should blow our minds. We are not only tolerated by God at a distance; no, we are welcomed into intimate personal communion with the King of kings, the Lord of lords, the creator, the sovereign, the Savior. We, as unholy as we are, are told to go with confidence into his holy presence.

God never intended for us to simply be the objects of His love. We are also called to be the instruments of that love in the lives of others.

We rarely do anything with on single motive.

Theology without love simply is very bad theology.
