We live in a culture where the truth claims of Christianity are not only rejected, they are ridiculed.
I don't always feel His presence. But God's promises do not depend upon my feelings; they rest upon His integrity.
A holy God is both just and merciful. He is never unjust.
To be spiritually dead is to be diabolically alive
We have no right to come before God at all, apart from the finished work of Christ.
Doctrine does matter.
We experience the grace of an infinite God, but grace is not infinite.
Reformed theology does NOT teach that God brings the ELECT kicking and screaming, against their will, into His kingdom. It teaches that God so-works in the hearts of the Elect as to make them willing and pleased to come to Christ. They come to Christ because they want to. They want to because God has created in their hearts a desire for Christ.
God's grace is not infinite. God is infinite, and God is gracious.
People only have true understanding when they look at everything from God's perspective. Authentic wisdom begins when we understand that God is to be the object of our devotion, our adoration, and our reverence.
When one encounters truth, one encounters the God whose truth it is.
If there ever was a time when absolutely nothing existed, all there could possibly be now is nothing.
The Advent season is that time when we seek to, in a manner of speaking, mute our memory of what has already happened, that we might brighten our joy that it happened. We leave the already of His advent to taste the bitter of the not yet. We, in short, go back, that we might look forward to His coming.
A Christian is not a skeptic. A Christian is a person with a burning heart, a heart set aflame with certainty of the resurrection.
