Nothing we formulate or do can qualify us for access to God. Only grace can do that- based not on our performance but on the saving work of Christ.
Timothy KellerJust because you cannot realize your highest aspirations in work does not mean you have chosen wrongly, or are not called to your profession, or that you should spend your life looking for the perfect career that is devoid of frustration. ... You should expect to be regularly frustrated in your work even though you may be in exactly the right vocation.
Timothy KellerWe must neither confuse evangelism with doing justice, nor separate them from one another.
Timothy KellerJesus Christ did not suffer so that you would not suffer. He suffered so that when you suffer, youโll become more like him. The gospel does not promise you better life circumstances; it promises you a better life.
