More quotes by Dallas Willard
If our gospel does not free the individual up for a unique life of spiritual adventure in living with God daily, we simply have not entered fully into the good news that Jesus brought.
Dallas Willard
A disciple is a learner, a student, an apprentice – a practitioner… Disciples of Jesus are people who do not just profess certain views as their own but apply their growing understanding of life in the Kingdom of the Heavens to every aspect of their life on earth.
Dallas Willard
The Bible, of course, is not a theology book. It is certainly not a philosophy book. So we have to derive the meaning of terms from the context in use.
Dallas Willard
Blessing is the projection of good into the life of another.
Dallas Willard
Find a person who has embraced anger, and you will find a person with a wounded ego.
Dallas Willard
It would be of course a low voltage spiritual life in which prayer was chiefly undertaken as a discipline, rather than as a way of co-labouring with God to accomplish good things and advancing his Kingdom purposes.
Dallas Willard
The humility that cringes in order that reproof may be escaped or favor obtained is as unchristian as it is profoundly immoral.
Dallas Willard
Unless you have already put God first, for example, what you will have to do to be financially secure, impress other people, or fulfill your desires will invariably lead you against God's wishes. That is why the first of the Ten Commandments, “You shall have no gods who take priority over me,” is the first of the Ten Commandments.
Dallas Willard
One of the hardest things in the world is to be right and not hurt other people with it.
Dallas Willard
God has yet to bless anyone except where they actually are, and if we faithlessly discard situation after situation, moment after moment, as not being right, we will simply have no place to receive his kingdom into our life.
Dallas Willard
We are built to live in the kingdom of God. It is our natural habitat.
Dallas Willard
Kingdom obedience is kingdom abundance
Dallas Willard
I believe that every human being is sufficiently depraved that when we get to heaven, no one will be able to say, I merited this.
Dallas Willard
You can live opposite of what you profess, but you cannot live opposite of what you believe.
Dallas Willard
The ultimate freedom we have as human beings is the power to select what we will allow or require our minds to dwell upon.
Dallas Willard
Hearing God is about the very specific issue of what it means to live with guidance in our life.
Dallas Willard
We live in a culture that has, for centuries now, cultivated the idea that the skeptical person is always smarter than one who believes. You can almost be as stupid as a cabbage as long as you doubt.
Dallas Willard
At the center of care for the heart is the love of God. This must be the joyful aim of our life.
Dallas Willard
The relation of redemption and sanctification would be the ongoing relationship between the driver and God who is directing her. Now, if God isn't directing him, he may go wild and do all sorts of things criminal and crazy.
Dallas Willard
The prospering of God's cause on earth depends upon his people thinking well.
