So here is what it comes down to: the ultimate choice in life is between pleasing ourselves and pleasing God.
Greg Laurie

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.

I appreciate zeal and energy and passion but in our zeal, we just need to do it in a loving way and do it in a compassionate way, not share our faith in a robotic or mechanical way, but interact with the person, listen to them, and respond appropriately to their questions.

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.

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.
Greg Laurie

We need people who will strictly interpret the law and not be promoting an agenda, as is the danger right now with some members of the Supreme Court.
Greg Laurie

God allows hardship in our lives so that our beliefs-those handholds of faith in a troubled world-will became more and more real to us and less and less theory.
Greg Laurie

Let's commit ourselves to being true disciples of Jesus Christ. Not mere fair-weather followers, but disciples.
Greg Laurie

The Bible says that in the last days that it will be like labor pains. As a woman is ready to give birth, the labor pains get closer and closer together. That's what I think we are seeing that says we are in, maybe now, the last hours because the events are getting closer together.
