If there ever was a time when absolutely nothing existed, all there could possibly be now is nothing.
Prayer is not optional for the Christian; it is required.
There’s a long and sacred history of the use of X to symbolize the name of Christ, and from its origin, it has meant no disrespect.
The resurrection was God the Father's way of authenticating all of the truths that were declared by Jesus.
If Christ could make a complaint, it would be, "My bride never talks to me".
The truth of Scripture is meant not only to be studied-it’s meant also to be sung.
A loving God who has no wrath is no God. He is an idol of our own making as much as if we carved Him out of stone.
We have to find in Christ, not a mask that conceals our face, but an entire wardrobe of clothing, which is His righteousness.
The grand difference between a human being and a Supreme being is precisely this: Apart from God I cannot exist; apart from me God does exist. God does not need me in order for Him to be. I do need God in order for me to be. We are dependent. We are fragile. This is how we differ from God.
Without the gospel, a gathering of people, though they claim otherwise, cannot be an authentic church.
Every person needs to feel significant. We want our lives to count. We yearn to believe that in some way we are important and that hunger for significance-a drive as intense as our need for oxygen-doesn't come from pride or ego. It comes from God because he wants each of us to understand how important we are. ... We must seek our roots, our origin, and our destiny so that we can know our present value. ..... ...We can help each other realize that we are persons of significance being made in the image of God.
The neutral view of free will is impossible. It involves choice without desire.
Natural man’s sin is precisely this: He wants the benefits of God without God Himself.
It is one thing to fall victim to the flood or to fall prey to cancer; it is another thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
