More quotes by Mark Driscoll
Past: Jesus saved us from the penalty of sin. Present: He saves us from the power of sin. Future: He will save us from the presence of sin.
Mark Driscoll
There are some women who are a good time and there are some women who are a good legacy.
Mark Driscoll
The inevitable result of borrowed faith is lost faith. People born into a family anchored in Christendom tend to assume they're right with God, regardless of whether they personally turn from sin and trust in Jesus.
Mark Driscoll
The church was custom built by Jesus, and we are all works in progress. We do not expect people to get their sin in order before attending church any more than a hospital expects people to get healed before they show up.
Mark Driscoll
Idols tend to be good things that you have turned into god things, which therefore become bad things
Mark Driscoll
Everyone is sinning, so it's no longer rebellious to sin. You're just a conformist if you're drunk and naked driving around in a loud motorcycle smoking cigarrettes breaking commandments getting pregnant out of wedlock. Everyone's done that. That's so tired!
Mark Driscoll
On the Sabbath day, we are remembering that my relationship with God did not begin with what I've done, it is not sustained by what I do, and it is not guaranteed to the end by my effort or work. I'm saved from beginning to end by Jesus' work.
Mark Driscoll
The Bible is not a book of principles to live by but rather a Person to live for.
Mark Driscoll
Ultimately I think the difference between reading the Bible and studying it is making the connections between who Jesus is and what he's done.
Mark Driscoll
So I decided to start a church, for three reasons. First, I hated going to church and wanted one I liked, so I thought I would just start my own. Second, God had spoken to me in one of those weird charismatic moments and told me to start a church. Third, I am scared of God and try to do what he says.
Mark Driscoll
Faith only grows through suffering.
Mark Driscoll
You have to laugh at yourself. Otherwise you'll waste all that great material.
Mark Driscoll
God is tolerant in that He asks everyone to repent.
Mark Driscoll
Repentance keeps sin from condemning us because Jesus died and scorned the shame.
Mark Driscoll
Being single is not easy. But neither is being married. They are just difficult in different ways as God uses everything in our life to make us more like Jesus, who happened to live a perfect life while single.
Mark Driscoll
You can't meet Jesus and not change. If you haven't changed, you haven't met the real Jesus.
Mark Driscoll
I have noticed that people tend to stop maturing when they start self-medicating. Everyone has very tough seasons of life, but by persevering through them we have an opportunity to mature and grow as people. Those who self-medicate...often thwart maturity as they escape the tough seasons of life rather than face them.
Mark Driscoll
I want to live with autonomy. That's the essence of sin.
Mark Driscoll
I'll preach anywhere. If it's a round trip ticket to preach in hell, I'll take it-as long as it's round trip.
Mark Driscoll
Spirituality, without the Holy Spirit, is demonic.
