We must go back again and again to the Gospel of Christ crucified, so that our hearts are more deeply gripped by the reality of what He did and who we are in Him.

If God is not at the center of your life, something else is.

If you try to add to God's salvation you subtract. If you try to add to God's salvation you subtract. If you try to merit God's salvation you haven't believed at all, even if you try to do a little bit.

The key question in order to change you is not 'What would Jesus do?' but "What has Jesus done for you?"

Suffering can refine us rather than destroy us because God himself walks with us in the fire.

Your feelings come from where you find your hope. Where is your happiness and your significance?

People only get in the afterlife what they have most wanted-either to have God as Savior and Master or to be their own Saviors and Masters.
