Image
The sin under all other sins is a lack of joy in Christ.
Timothy Keller
Image
[T]he main problem in life is sin, and the only solution is God and his grace. The alternative to this view is to identify something besides sin as the main problem with the world and something besides God as the main remedy. That demonizes something that is not completely bad, and makes an idol out of something that cannot be the ultimate good.
Timothy Keller
Image
Marriage does not so much bring you into confrontation with your spouse as confront you with yourself.
Timothy Keller
Image
Reason can get you to probability, but only commitment can get you to certainty.
Timothy Keller
Image
You dont fall into love. You commit to it. Love is saying I will be there no matter what.
Timothy Keller
Image
Suffering is the stripping of our hope in finite things, therefore we do not put our ultimate hope in anything finite.
Timothy Keller
Image
True citizens of the heavenly city are the best residents of the earthly city.
Timothy Keller
Image
Revival occurs as a group of people who, on the whole, think they already know the gospel discover they do not really or fully know it, and by embracing the gospel they cross over into living faith.
Timothy Keller
Image
The main problem in the Christian life is that we have not thought out the deep implications of the gospel, we have not 'used' the gospel in and on all parts of our life.
Timothy Keller
Image
Out of the cross comes the resurrection. Out of weakness comes real strength.
Timothy Keller
Image
The human heart is an idol factory that takes good things like a successful career, love, material possessions, even family, and turns them into ultimate things. Our hearts deify them as the center of our lives, because, we think, they can give us significance and security, safety and fulfillment, if we attain them.
Timothy Keller
Image
While we want doubts to give way to faith, we should be merciful and patient with those who are still in a doubt-troubled place.
Timothy Keller
Image
God sees us as we are, loves us as we are, and accepts us as we are. But by His grace, He does not leave us as we are.
Timothy Keller
Image
After creation God said, 'It is finished'-and he rested. After redemption Jesus said, 'It is finished'-and we can rest.
Timothy Keller
Image
Jesus warns people far more often about greed than about sex, yet almost no one thinks they are guilty of it.
Timothy Keller
Image
There is no way to have a real relationship without becoming vulnerable to hurt. Christmas tells us that God became breakable and fragile. God became someone we could hurt. Why? To get us back... No other religion-whethe r secularism, Greco-Roman paganism, Eastern religion, Judaism, or Islam-believes God became breakable or suffered or had a body.
Timothy Keller
Image
Nobody who understands the free grace of God takes sin lightly.
Timothy Keller
Image
If you don't feel like praying, pray to God to give you the desire.
Timothy Keller
Image
Religious people find God useful. Gospel people find him beautiful.
Timothy Keller
Image
The irreligious don't repent at all and the religious only repent of sins. But Christians repent of their wrongfully placed righteousness.
