The secret of the gospel is that we actually do more when we hear less about all we need to do for God and hear more about all that God has already done for us.

All paths lead to God, but only one path will present you before God without fault and with great joy. Pick a path, any path—it will take you to God. Trust me: you will stand before Him one day. You will meet your Maker. You will see the face of Christ. There are many ways up the mountain, but only one will result in life instead of destruction.

The only chains God wants us to wear are the chains of righteousness--not the chains of hopeless subjectivism, not the shackles of risk-free living, not the fetters of horoscope decision making--just the chains befitting a bond servant of Christ Jesus. Die to self. Live for Christ. And then do what you want, and go where you want, for God's glory.

There is no way to work your way to God. There is no way to climb up to heaven. There is only one way, and that is through Christ.

God did not send a concept, an idea, or a virtue. He sent his Son. Follow the God of love, not love as your god.

It's not convincing to say you are a child of God if you have none of the characteristics of your Father.
