The whole concept of providence is that God knows everything about what we do.

God Himself supplies the necessary condition to come to Jesus, that's why it is 'sola gratia,' by grace alone, that we are saved.

The grand difference between a human being and a Supreme being is precisely this: Apart from God I cannot exist; apart from me God does exist. God does not need me in order for Him to be. I do need God in order for me to be. We are dependent. We are fragile. This is how we differ from God.

Faith never requires us to crucify our minds or deny our senses.

We break our promises to one another. We break our promises to God. But God never breaks His promises to us.

I get irritated when I hear preachers say, "Come to Jesus and all your problems will be over." That's just simply a lie.

We take comfort, however, that mystery is not a synonym for contradiction.
