More quotes by Cornelius Plantinga
For the Christian church.... to ignore, euphemize, or otherwise mute the lethal reality of sin is to cut the nerve of the gospel. For the sober truth is that without full disclosure on sin, the gospel of grace becomes impertinent, unnecessary, and finally uninteresting.
Cornelius Plantinga
To speak of sin without grace is to minimize the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the fruit of the Spirit, and the hope of shalom.
Cornelius Plantinga
All sin is equally wrong, but not all sin is equally bad.
Cornelius Plantinga
To try deliberately for self-actualization is like trying very hard to fall asleep or to have a good time.
Cornelius Plantinga
We know the excitement of getting a present - we love to unwrap it to see what is inside. So it is with our children. They are gifts we unwrap for years as we discover the unique characters God has made them.
Cornelius Plantinga
... the way to thrive is to help others thrive the way to flourish is to help others flourish the way to fulfill yourself is to spend yourself.
