Salvation is not a reward for the righteous, it is a gift for the guilty.

The demands of following Christ will cost you everything. But you gain far more than you give up. You give up dirt for diamonds.

There is a kind of preaching that God blesses, specifically the proclamation that exalts the crucified Christ by the power of the Spirit. Conversely, there is a kind of preaching that God does not bless, a mere echoing of man’s empty wisdom that is devoid of Christ.

Truth is never determined by majority opinion, but by divine revelation.

When God measures a church, He begins with its depth not its breadth, with its substance not its style.
