The world is a dark place, and yet the coming of Jesus Christ shows us no one and nothing is hopeless.
Timothy KellerIf you come from insignificance and when you die you return to insignificance, then nothing is significant now.
Timothy KellerSuffering dispels the illusion that we have the strength and competence to rule our own lives and save ourselves.
Timothy KellerIf a person has grasped the meaning of God's grace in his heart, he will do justice. If he doesn't live justly, then he may say with his lips that he is grateful for God's grace, but in his heart he is far from him. If he doesn't care about the poor, it reveals that at best he doesn't understand the grace he has experienced, and at worst he has not really encountered the saving mercy of God. Grace should make you just.
