transformation
God is the one to be praised, not our transformation.
christian grace rediscovery
The Christian life has been nothing more and nothing less than a daily dependence on and a rediscovery of God's grace.
suffering chiefs believer
For the life of the believer, one thing is beautifully and abundantly true: God's chief concern in your suffering is to be with you and be himself for you.
people alive dead-people
The gospel doesn't make bad people good, it makes dead people alive.
heart people church
There are a still lot of people in today's church who can easily identify the idolatry outside the church and are pretty proud of the fact that they are not like them. And yet, we are far too slow to recognize the idolatry inside the church and more painfully, the idolatry inside our hearts.
suffering responsible combat
We are not responsible for finding the right formula to combat or unlock our suffering.
pain heart remove
Your pain could be God prying open your life and heart to remove a gift of His that you've been on to more dearly than Him.
hands long bitterness
When we depend on anything smaller than God to provide us with the security, significance, meaning, and value that we long for, God will love us enough to take it away. Much of our anger and bitterness, therefore, is God prying open our hands and taking away something we've held onto more tightly than him.
crush law grace
Grace could not have done it’s curing work if the law had not first done its crushing work.
grief comfort depth
Only the Holy Spirit can comfort a person in the depths of grief.
moving
Once God saves us He doesn't move us beyond the gospel, but He moves us more deeply into the gospel.
enough old-testament good-work
In the Old Testament, we are continually told that our good works are not enough, that God has made a provision. This provision is pointed to at every place in the Old Testament.
heaven sides world
The cross [is] the ultimate statement of God's involvement in the world on this side of heaven.
christian simple thinking
I think for far too long the Church has concluded that Christians don't need the gospel, it's simple what non-Christian people need in order to be saved.
