More quotes by J. I. Packer
God's love is an exercise of his goodness toward sinners who merit only condemnation.
J. I. Packer
The Holy Spirit is God the evangelist.
J. I. Packer
Suffering is getting what you do not want while wanting what you do not get.
J. I. Packer
If we pursue theological knowledge for its own sake, it's bound to go bad on us. It will make us proud and conceited.
J. I. Packer
God is triune there are within the Godhead three persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit and the work of salvation is one in which all three act together, the Father purposing redemption, the Son securing it and the Spirit applying it.
J. I. Packer
We are not fit for a place in God's family the idea of his loving and exalting us sinners as he loves and has exalted the Lord Jesus sounds ludicrous and wild -- yet that, and nothing less than that, is what our adoption means.
J. I. Packer
Repentance is more than just sorrow for the past repentance is a change of mind and heart, a new life of denying self and serving the Savior as king in self's place.
J. I. Packer
Your faith will not fail while God sustains it you are not strong enough to fall away while God is resolved to hold you.
J. I. Packer
Evangelizing includes the endeavor to elicit a response to the truth taught.
J. I. Packer
Revelation does not mean man finding God, but God finding man, God sharing His secrets with us, God showing us Himself. In revelation, God is the agent as well as the object.
J. I. Packer
The Almighty appeared on earth as a helpless human baby, needing to be fed and changed and taught to talk like any other child. The more you think about it, the more staggering it gets. Nothing in fiction is so fantastic as this truth of the Incarnation.
J. I. Packer
Doctrinal preaching certainly bores the hypocrites but it is only doctrinal preaching that will save Christ's sheep.
J. I. Packer
God is good to all in some ways and to some in all ways.
J. I. Packer
The essence of God's action in wrath is to give people what they choose, in all its implications.
J. I. Packer
Certainly true worship invigorates, but to plan invigoration is not necessarily to order worship.
J. I. Packer
Holy people glory, not in their holiness, but in Christ's cross for the holiest saint is never more than a justified sinner and never sees himself in any other way.
J. I. Packer
The grace of God is love freely shown toward guilty sinners, contrary to their merit and indeed in defiance of their demerit.
J. I. Packer
Thank you, Mr.Lewis, for being you. I wouldn't have missed you for the world.
J. I. Packer
His purpose is simply to draw us closer to Himself in conscious communion with Him.
J. I. Packer
Many humanists in the West are stirred by a sense of outrage at what professed Christians, past and present, have done and this makes them see their humanism as a kind of crusade, with the killing of Christianity as its prime goal.
J. I. Packer
