More quotes by David Platt
We act, though, not under a utopian illusion that you or I or anyone or everyone together can rid this world of pain and suffering. That responsibility belongs to the resurrected Christ, and he will do it when he returns. But until that day, we do with an undivided heart whatever God calls us to do.
David Platt
We have the audacity to look God in the face and say, 'No.'
David Platt
We don't have stomachs for the things of this world because we have feasted on the goodness of our God.
David Platt
The message of biblical Christianity is 'God loves me so that I might make him- his ways, his salvation, his glory, and his greatness- known among all nations.' Now God is the object of our faith, and Christianity centers around him. We are not the end of the gospel God is'
David Platt
Salvation now consists of a deep wrestling in our souls with the sinfulness of our hearts, the depth of our depravity, and the desperation of our need for his grace.
David Platt
Good intentions, regular worship, Bible study, do not prevent blindness. Part of our sinful nature instinctively chooses to see what we want to see and to ignore what we want to ignore.
David Platt
If our lives do not reflect radical compassion for the poor, there is reason to wonder if Christ is really in us at all
David Platt
We can rest confident in the fact that nothing will happen to us in this world apart from the gracious will of a sovereign God. Nothing.
David Platt
If we are going to accomplish the global purpose of God, it will not be primarily through giving our money, as important as that is. It will happen primarily through giving ourselvs. This is what the gospel represents and this is what the gospel requires.
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
Do you realize the weight of the one who has invited us to follow him? He is worthy of more than church attendance and casual association he is worthy of total abandonment and supreme adoration.
David Platt
Why make disciples? Because heaven and hell exist, and the end of the world is coming.
David Platt
Radical obedience to Christ is not easy... It's not comfort, not health, not wealth, and not prosperity in this world. Radical obedience to Christ risks losing all these things. But in the end, such risk finds its reward in Christ. And he is more than enough for us.
David Platt
God's revelation is in the gospel not only reveals who He is, but it also reveals who we are.
David Platt
The resources of heaven are ready and waiting for the people of God who desire to make much of him in this world
David Platt
To be a Christian is to be loved by God, pursued by God, and found by God.
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
To everyone wanting a safe, untroubled, comfortable life free from danger, stay away from Jesus. The danger in our lives will always increase in proportion to the depth of our relationship with Christ.
David Platt
Do we believe the reward found in Jesus is worth the risk of following Him?
David Platt
Superficial religion consists of merely believing certain truths and doing certain things....such superficial religion is rampant in the world today.
