More quotes by J. I. Packer
The peace of God is first and foremost peace with God.
J. I. Packer

J. I. Packer
Confidence that one's impressions are God-given is no guarantee that this is really so, even when they persist and grow stronger through long seasons of prayer. Bible-based wisdom must judge them.
J. I. Packer
God's overriding goal is to glorify Himself.
J. I. Packer
Knowing about God is crucially important for the living of our lives... Disregard the study of God, and you sentence yourself to stumble and blunder through life blindfolded, as it were, with no sense of direction and no understanding of what surrounds you. This way you can waste your life and lose your soul.
J. I. Packer

J. I. Packer
Disregard the study of God, and you sentence yourself to stumble and blunder through life blindfolded.
