We deserve to be forgotten because we forget Him. But because Jesus died on the cross, we will never, ever be forgotten by God.
Timothy Keller
Image
If we are deeply moved by the sight of his love for us, it detaches our hearts from other would-be saviors. We stop trying to redeem ourselves through our pursuits and relationships, because we are already redeemed. We stop trying to make others into saviors, because we have a Savior.

A genuinely persuasive argument does not merely tell you that you are wrong about everything. It doesn't just beat on you from the outside. It comes inside your belief system, as it were, and affirms something you believe strongly. And then it says - well if you believe this (A) then why in the world can't you see that B is true?

When you experience God it is deeply personal, but it's not at all private.
Timothy Keller
Image
The Gospel does not promise you better life circumstances it promises you a better life.
Timothy Keller
Image
God relentlessly offers his grace to people who do not deserve it, or seek it, or even appreciate it after they have been saved by it.
Timothy Keller
Image
If you have a small view of your sin, God's grace will be small to you.
Timothy Keller
Image
One of the most frequent responses I get from non-Christian readers is: 'I'm not sure I agree with all this, but I must say this is the first book I've read by a Christian that didn't treat me like I was an idiot.'
Timothy Keller
Image
Unless you point to the good news of God's grace people will not be able to bear the bad news of God's judgement.
Timothy Keller
Image
The gospel is not just the A-B-C's but the A-Z of Christianity. The gospel is not just the minimum required doctrine necessary to enter the kingdom, but the way we make all progress in the kingdom.
Timothy Keller
Image
Christ's resurrection not only gives you hope for the future it gives you hope to handle your scars right now.
Timothy Keller
Image
There are some needs only you can see. There are some hands only you can hold. There are some people only you can reach.
