'Economics for Everybody' begins with understanding God's principles for organizing His creation and what that means for us as creatures and stewards.
If God is the Creator of the entire universe, then it must follow that He is the Lord of the whole universe. No part of the world is outside of His lordship. That means that no part of my life must be outside of His lordship.
Faith is the means by which the righteousness of Christ is given to us.
It’s dangerous to assume that because a person is drawn to holiness in his study that he is thereby a holy man. There is irony here. I am sure that the reason I have a deep hunger to learn of the holiness of God is precisely because I am not holy. I am a profane man—a man who spends more time out of the temple than in it. But I have had just enough of a taste of the majesty of God to want more. I know what it means to be a forgiven man and what it means to be sent on a mission. My soul cries for more. My soul needs more.
If you’re not accountable in life that means ultimately that your life doesn’t count.
Your personal testimony, however meaningful it is to you, is not the gospel.
The only thing that we have earned at the hands of perfect justice is perfect punishment.
To be a Christian is to be a theologian-a student of God and his will. The contemporary disdain for theological content and emphasis on self-image and emotions were not shared by the apostolic church.

If you care about the slaughter of the innocent, then for God's sake, speak up.
You have to stop thinking logically to argue that the universe came into being by itself, out of nothing.
God's grace is so powerful that it has the capacity to overcome our natural resistance to it.
No Christian can avoid theology. Every Christian has a theology. The issue, then, is not, dowe want to have a theology? That's a given. The real issue is, do we have a sound theology.? Do we embrace true or false doctrine?
The only works of righteousness that serve to justify a sinner are the works of Christ.
