More quotes by Timothy Keller
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
If this world was made by a triune God, relationships of love are what life is really all about.
Timothy Keller
After creation God said, 'It is finished'-and he rested. After redemption Jesus said, 'It is finished'-and we can rest.
Timothy Keller
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
The only love that won’t disappoint you is one that can’t change, that can’t be lost, that is not based on the ups and downs of life or of how well you live. It is something that not even death can take away from you. God’s love is the only thing like that.
Timothy Keller
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
God will only give you what you would have asked for if you knew everything he knows
Timothy Keller
Nothing we formulate or do can qualify us for access to God. Only grace can do that- based not on our performance but on the saving work of Christ.
Timothy Keller
If you aren't constantly astonished at God's grace in your solitude, there's no way it can happen in public.
Timothy Keller
If you need something in addition to God to make you happy, that is your true King.
Timothy Keller
The main human problems often are that we misidentify what will make us happy and we ask people and things to save us beyond their ability.
Timothy Keller
Christians should not be optimists we know too much about sin. We should also not be pessimists, for we know the living God.
Timothy Keller
We must go back again and again to the Gospel of Christ crucified, so that our hearts are more deeply gripped by the reality of what He did and who we are in Him.
Timothy Keller
Job never saw why he suffered, but he saw God, and that was enough.
Timothy Keller
The goal of prayer is not just the sharing of our ideas, but also of ourselves.
Timothy Keller
Our culture says that feelings of love are the basis for actions of love. And of course that can be true. But it is truer to say that actions of love can lead consistently to feelings of love.
Timothy Keller
Trust is accepting what God sends into your life whether you understand it or not.
Timothy Keller
Every religion has a prophet who is pointing people to God. Jesus is the only one who says, 'I am God, and I am coming to find you.'
Timothy Keller
Love is the effort and desire to make someone else everything they were created to be.
Timothy Keller
The prerequisite for receiving the grace of God is to know you need it.
