More quotes by Timothy Keller
The Gospel is the deepest consolation you can offer to the human heart.
Timothy Keller
We were designed to know, serve, and love God supremely - and when we are faithful to that design, we flourish.
Timothy Keller
Prayer is the way to experience a powerful confidence that God is handling our lives well, that our bad things will turn out for good, our good things cannot be taken from us, and the best things are yet to come.
Timothy Keller
Religion poses a danger of creating division or intolerance between groups of people. However, the gospel of Jesus lead us to three things: humble service, reconciling behavior that is neither patronizing nor self-righteous, and a love toward people who hold different beliefs than we do.
Timothy Keller
Every treasure on this earth says, 'Give your life to purchase me.' Jesus says 'I'm the one treasure who died to purchase you.'
Timothy Keller
The irreligious don't repent at all and the religious only repent of sins. But Christians repent of their wrongfully placed righteousness.
Timothy Keller
Prayer is never just an emergency flare or desperate anxious gamble. God's attention is not based on our performance but parental love.
Timothy Keller
The issue on which everything hangs is not whether you like His teaching but if He ‪rose from the dead.
Timothy Keller
Faith is not opposed to reason, but it is sometimes opposed to feelings and appearances.
Timothy Keller
Let us preach grace till humility just starts to grow in us.
Timothy Keller
Religion operates on the principle 'I obey-therefore I am accepted by God.' But the operating principle of the gospel is 'I am accepted by God through what Christ has done-therefore I obey.'
Timothy Keller
At the end of history the whole earth has become the Garden of God again. Death and decay and suffering are gone. . . . Jesus will make the world our perfect home again. We will no longer be living 'east of Eden,' always wandering and never arriving. We will come, and the father will meet us and embrace us, and we will be brought into the feast.
Timothy Keller
The rich brother needs to let the gospel humble him while the poor brother needs to let the gospel affirm him.
Timothy Keller
The primary means-of-reviva l that everyone agrees upon is extraordinary prayer.
Timothy Keller
Most apologetic books are really written for Christians, even the ones that purport to be written for non-believers.
Timothy Keller
What is an idol? It is anything more important to you than God, anything that absorbs your heart and imagination more than God, anything you seek to give you what only God can give.
Timothy Keller
Job never saw why he suffered, but he saw God, and that was enough.
Timothy Keller
I hate the moment when suddenly my anger turns into tears
Timothy Keller
The cross is the place where the Judge takes the Judgment.
Timothy Keller
Suffering dispels the illusion that we have the strength and competence to rule our own lives and save ourselves.
