If there is one single reason why good people turn evil, it is because they fail to recognize God’s ownership over their kingdom, their vocation, their resources, their abilities, and above all their lives.

More quotes by Erwin W. Lutzer
We must worship in truth. Worship is not just an emotional exercise but a response of the heart built on truth about God. The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth (Psm. 145:18). Worship that is not based on God's Word is but an emotional encounter with oneself.
Erwin W. Lutzer
Everything that God brings into our life is directed to one purpose: that we might be conformed to the image of Christ.
Erwin W. Lutzer
The work that God does in us when we wait is usually more important than the thing for which we wait!
Erwin W. Lutzer
Satan exploits pain by making it the central focus of the man’s (or woman’s) thoughts and attitudes.

Within evangelicalism is a distressing drift toward accepting a Christianity that does not demand a life-changing walk with God. Many evangelicals (today) do not realize that the church has always been an island of righteousness in a sea of paganism, but as a result they turned the world upside-down.
Erwin W. Lutzer
I think that as Christians we need to walk the delicate balance between standing in opposition to same-sex marriages and yet showing that we can do that without becoming angry or hateful.

Thank God for the way He made you. You are special, distinct, and unique. You were not made from a common mold. Thank Him that you are special.

God has a program of character development for each of us. He wants others to look at our lives and say, He walks with God, for he lives like Christ.
Erwin W. Lutzer
Faith is only as good as the object in which it is placed.
Erwin W. Lutzer
Worship is not an external activity precipitated by the right environment. To worship in spirit is to draw near to God with an undivided heart. We must come in full agreement without hiding anything or disregarding His will.
Erwin W. Lutzer
Each temptation leaves us better or worse neutrality is impossible.
Erwin W. Lutzer
Make no mistake about the intention of these secularists: It is to discredit the voice of Christians so that America will tolerate only one view.
Erwin W. Lutzer
There’s no such thing as a bitter person who keeps the bitterness to himself.
Erwin W. Lutzer
Are we as willing to go into debt for the work of God as we are for a vacation to Hawaii?
Erwin W. Lutzer
If we haven't learned to be worshipers it doesn't really matter how well we do anything else. Worship changes us or it has not been worship. To stand before the Holy One of eternity is to change. Worship begins in holy expectancy, it ends in holy obedience.

Our brothers and sisters in Muslim countries can't celebrate Christmas-or any aspect of their faith-openly for fear of persecution and death. And yet we, with all our freedoms, often choose to make Christmas a celebration of commercialism!
Erwin W. Lutzer
Better to love God and die unknown than to love the world and be a hero.
Erwin W. Lutzer
Men look for better methods, but God looks for better men.
Erwin W. Lutzer
Christmas can be transformed into a celebration more attuned to honoring the One whose birthday we celebrate.
Erwin W. Lutzer
When the mask of self-righteousness has been torn from us and we stand stripped of all our accustomed defenses, we are candidates for God's generous grace.
