Look at the Book

The world’s CEOs often are ambitious, stern, and overworked. The church’s leaders need to be happy, holy, and humble.

Pastors cannot be men who preach what others should practice, but do not practice what they preach.

Silence from family and friends is one thing, silence from God is another. But no matter how hard it is, we must trust that he is working all things for our good.

If God has not redeemed you, nothing will make you choose God over your sin. If God has chosen you, no scheme of Satan can keep you from choosing him.

Unconditional election means that God chose his people without them first meeting any conditions. God’s choice does not depend on our works, faith, or beauty, but rather his choice creates each in us.

When our thoughts have been unruly, our hearts hard, our deeds despicable, when we teeter from the devastation of sin and straddle the precipice of hell, cry out to God for mercy.

All thoughts are not created equal, all opinions are not valid, and no worldview matters but God’s.

While the world threatens, the Christian serves. As the world imprisons, the Christian prays. When the world does evil, the Christian does good.

The baby lay in the manger, and the man hung on the cross, that by his life and death we would be free to enjoy God forever.

When a Christian Hedonist says, “Merry Christmas,” he means much more than a warm holiday with friends and family.

How Jesus Christ came to lay in the cradle, has massive implications for what he did on the cross.

Although the world may send us into its furnace for not bowing our knees, we know that the Son of God is with us in the flames.

No matter how bad your sufferings are in this life, rejoice that they can only cut so deep and last for so long.

It’s hard to hear in the moment that God is sovereign over our suffering, but in the long run it makes all the difference.

If the Father judged Jesus on our behalf, doesn’t that mean that we won’t be?
