More quotes by D. A. Carson
Damn all false dichotomies to hell
D. A. Carson
Worship is the proper response of all moral, sentient beings to God, ascribing all honor and worth to their Creator-God precisely because he is worthy, delightfully so.
D. A. Carson
...sometimes God chooses to bless us and make us people of integrity in the midst of abominable circumstances, rather than change our circumstances.
D. A. Carson
The more we get to know God, the more we want to know him better.
D. A. Carson
Prayer is God's appointed means for appropriating the blessings that are ours in Christ Jesus.
D. A. Carson
Draw nigh to God, so that you may dread the grave as little as your bed. Draw nigh to God, that you may live a happy and useful life. Drawing nigh to God is the most concentrated energy of the soul. Effective prayer is the fruit of a relationship with God, not a technique for acquiring blessings.
D. A. Carson
The way you lose the gospel is not by denying it, but by assuming it.
D. A. Carson
God is absolutely sovereign, but his sovereignty never mitigates human responsibility.
D. A. Carson
We are lost when human opinion means more to us than God’s.
D. A. Carson
Either worrying drives out prayer, or prayer drives out worrying.
D. A. Carson
We do not drift into spiritual life or disciplined prayer. We will not grow in prayer unless we plan to pray.
D. A. Carson
A wrong understanding is interested in precisionism. That is it tries to say that the Bible can't be telling the truth if it says that Jesus was such and such a distance from some place or other and in fact the distance is off by 15% or something like that. There are all kinds of grounded figures and so forth.
D. A. Carson
The place where God has supremely destroyed all human arrogance and pretension is the cross.
D. A. Carson
Christians have learned that when there seems to be no other evidence of God's love, they cannot escape the cross.
D. A. Carson
If you want to see what judgment looks like, go to the cross. If you want to see what love looks like, go to the cross.
D. A. Carson
Much praying is not done because we do not plan to pray. We do not drift into spiritual life we do not drift into disciplined prayer. We will not grow in prayer unless we plan to pray. That means we must self-consciousl y set aside time to do nothing but pray.
D. A. Carson
We overcome the accuser of our brothers and sisters, we overcome our consciences, we overcome our bad tempers, we overcome our defeats, we overcome our lusts, we overcome our fears, we overcome our pettiness on the basis of the blood of the Lamb.
D. A. Carson
All of us would be wiser if we would resolve never to put people down, except on our prayer lists.
D. A. Carson
The person who prays more in public than in private reveals that he is less interested in God's approval than in human praise. Not piety but a reputation for piety is his concern.
D. A. Carson
The Christian's whole desire, at its best and highest, is that Jesus Christ be praised. It is always a wretched bastardization of our goals when we want to win glory for ourselves instead of for him.
D. A. Carson
