To fear the Lord is to be overwhelmed with wonder before the greatness of God and his love.

Christmas means Jesus came down and got involved in suffering. He hears your cries.

It is because of the doctrine of judgment and hell that Jesus' proclamations of grace and love are so astounding.

There are many ways to cover up our sin. We may justify or minimize it by blaming circumstances and others people. However, real repentance first admits sin as sin and takes full responsibility. True confession and repentance begins when blame shifting ends...Just as real repentance begins only where blame shifting ends, so it also begins where self-pity ends, and we start to turn from our sin out of love for God rather than mere self-interest.

What you treasure will ultimately require you die for it, Jesus is the only treasure that died for you.

Money isn't an idol. It just shows you where your idols are.

Jesus Christ doesn’t just give us truths; he is the truth. Jesus Christ is the prophet to end all prophets. He gives us hard-copy words from God, truths on which we can build our lives, truths we have to submit to, truths we have to obey, and truths we have to build our lives on, but he himself is the truth.
