Quote

The real message of Christmas is not the gifts that we give to each other. Rather, it is a reminder of the gift that God has given to each of us. It is the only gift that truly keeps on giving.

I have found that if you invest in the lives of people, well-feed sheep will reproduce themselves.

Image
I take it very seriously when I take the pulpit. That I'm representing God.
Greg Laurie

God rewards the person who is diligent. And for those who will take time in their day to seek the Lord, for those who will take time to read His Word, for those who will take time to wait upon Him, He will reveal His truths to them.

When someone gets up and says that the Bible is not the word of God, I really don't care what their point is. That, to me, is apostasy.

Every Christian is called to preach the gospel. We need to take the commission seriously.
Greg Laurie

The Bible speaks of the sense of commission, which is doing what you should not do, instead of omission, which is not doing what you should do. It says in the book of James that if you know to do good and don't do it, it is sin.

I think there is always new people that have never heard the gospel before that need to have it because the gospel - which is the death, resurrection of Christ and the message of his forgiveness - is the only hope for a person knowing that they will go to Heaven and then finding the meaning and purpose they search for in life.
Greg Laurie
Image
I think we have people that are not even leaving their comfort zone to engage people with the gospel. I don't know if you can be overzealous, but you can be unwise in the way you do it.
Greg Laurie
Image
We also need to recognize that God may have other plans in store for us, and we must be willing to accept that.
Greg Laurie
Image
The Lord will remove the church but the Holy Spirit will still be working on planet Earth, bringing people into the kingdom.
Greg Laurie
Image
The most miserable man or woman is the one who knows what is right and does not do it.
Greg Laurie
Image
Giving is a responsibility. It is an opportunity. And it is a blessing for every follower of Jesus Christ.
Greg Laurie
Image
And any declaration of faith that does not result in a changed life and good works is a false declaration. It is faith alone that justifies. But faith that justifies can never be alone.

Either you will have harmony with God and friction with people, or you will have harmony with people and friction with God.
