The Word of God can be in the mind without being in the heart; but it cannot be in the heart without first being in the mind.

When there’s something in the Word of God that I don’t like, the problem is not with the Word of God, it’s with me.

In Reformed theology, if God is not sovereign over the entire created order, then he is not sovereign at all. The term sovereignty too easily becomes a chimera. If God is not sovereign, then he is not God.

Truth is too important to kill it in the streets for the sake of peace.

People only have true understanding when they look at everything from God's perspective. Authentic wisdom begins when we understand that God is to be the object of our devotion, our adoration, and our reverence.

Like Muslims we assume that God will judge us "on balance." If our good deeds outweigh our bad deeds, we will arrive safely in heaven. But, alas, if our evil deeds outweigh our good ones, we will suffer the wrath of God in hell. We may be "marred" by sin but in no wise devastated by it. We still have the ability to balance our sins with our own righteousness. This is the most monstrous lie of all.

It is by virtue of the atonement that God can maintain His justice and yet demonstrate His mercy.
