More quotes by Kevin DeYoung
We do not truly know what love is unless we know Christ.
Kevin DeYoung
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.
Kevin DeYoung
It's true that every road leads to God. But only one way leads to a pleasant encounter with Him.
Kevin DeYoung
You will not find what you want in the world, only in the Father.
Kevin DeYoung
God is still here, God is still real, and God has not gone anywhere, even if you have.
Kevin DeYoung
Busyness kills more Christians than bullets.
Kevin DeYoung
If there really is a perfect will of God we are meant to discover, in which we will find tremendous freedom and fulfillment, why does it seem that everyone looking for God's will is in such bondage and confusion?
Kevin DeYoung
If the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, then growing in our knowledge of God is always practical.
Kevin DeYoung
Sincere biblical repentance is as much a work of grace as not sinning in the first place. To err is human, to make progress is divine.
Kevin DeYoung
Sanctification is not by surrender, but by divinely enabled toil and effort.
Kevin DeYoung
The word of God is more than enough for the people of God to live their lives to the glory of God

Here's good news: God is even more committed to your change, your growth, and your transformation than you are.
Kevin DeYoung
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.
Kevin DeYoung
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.
Kevin DeYoung
I try to keep in my mind the simple question: Am I trying to do good or make myself look good? Too many of our responsibilities get added to our plate when we are trying to please people, impress people, prove ourselves, acquire power, increase our prestige. All those motivations are about looking good more than doing good.
Kevin DeYoung
Sooner could a fish live upon a tree than the wicked in Paradise.
Kevin DeYoung
Christianity loses its scriptural fidelity and internal power when it no longer affirms both sola fide and the necessity of obedience.
Kevin DeYoung
God's timing is rarely our timing.
Kevin DeYoung
The reason for your entire salvation, the design behind your deliverance, the purpose for which God chose you in the first place is holiness.
Kevin DeYoung
I'm pretty sure most of us would be more fulfilled if we didn't fixate on fulfillment quite so much.
