More quotes by David Platt
God involves us in his mission not because he needs us but because he loves us.
David Platt
The call of Christ is to deny ourselves and to let go of our lives. To relinquish control of our lives, to surrender everything we are, everything that we do, our direction our safety our security is no longer found in the things of this world. It is found in Christ. And that is great risk when it comes to the things of this world.
David Platt
We are settling for a Christianity that revolves around catering to ourselves when the central message of Christianity is actually about abandoning ourselves.
David Platt
It is impossible to be a follower of Christ while denying, disregarding, discrediting, and disbelieving the words of Christ.
David Platt
This is the reality about humanity. We are each born with an evil, God-hating heart. Genesis 8: 21 says that every inclination of man's heart is evil from childhood, and Jesus' words in Luke 11: 13 assume that we know we are evil.
David Platt
We have an incomprehensibly great God!
David Platt
God delights in revealing Himself to you when you are bold enough to bother Him. In fact, I think He would say that the only thing that bothers Him is when you don’t come to Him.
David Platt

David Platt
Give liberally. Go urgently. Live dangerously.
David Platt
And this is why Jesus came: to endure the holy wrath of God due us.
David Platt
Why make disciples? Because heaven and hell exist, and the end of the world is coming.
David Platt
Passionate worship always leads to personal witness. Always. And what that means is . . . if we’re not witnessing, there’s a problem with our worship. We’re not seeing God for who He is! We’re not realizing what He’s done! We’re not realizing the magnitude of what He’s done for our souls!
David Platt
So the challenge for us is to live in such a way that we are radically dependent on and desperate for the power that only God can provide.
David Platt
The Bible clearly reminds us that left to ourselves, we would be lost forever.
David Platt
The faith in Christ that saves us from our sins involves an internal transformation that has external implications.
David Platt
In direct contradiciton to the American dream, God actually delights in exalting our inability.
David Platt
There is a sense in which the danger of our lives increases in proportion to the depth of our relationship with Christ.
David Platt
What if all it took to bring us to our knees and to ignite our affections was the Word opened and the presence of God? What if that was enough for us? What if it didn't take a great band to evoke that kind of response from us in worship? What if His presence - His Word opened - what if it was enough?
David Platt
This is the gospel. The just and loving Creator of the universe has looked upon hopelessly sinful people and sent His Son, God in the flesh, to bear His wrath against sin on the cross and to show His power over sin in the resurrection so that all who trust in Him will be reconciled to God forever.
David Platt
Christianity does not start with an invitation we offer to Jesus, but with an invitation Jesus offers to us.
