Tullian TchividjianThe emphasis of the Bible is on the work of the Redeemer, not on the work of the redeemed.
Tullian TchividjianEvery time we sin in thought, word, or deed, we're essentially saying in that moment that, "I don't need you God. I don't want you God. I like my way better than your way."
