The Gospel is that Jesus Christ came to earth, lived the life we should have lived and died the death we should have died.

Important reminder: It's not fair of you to demand more proof of Christians for their beliefs than you demand for your own.

The future is already won, and the more hostile the culture, the easier it is to communicate the difference of Christianity.

We should let Scripture interpret us more than we interpret Scripture.

Rejoicing and repentance must go together. Repentance without rejoicing will lead to despair. Rejoicing without repentance is shallow and will only provide passing inspiration instead of deep change.

Suffering dispels the illusion that we have the strength and competence to rule our own lives and save ourselves.

Those who condemn the self-righteous for the sake of self-discovery do so with ironic self-righteousness.
