To stand in the presence of God, that is what the Gospel is. The Gospel is not primarily about forgiveness. It’s not primarily about good feelings. It’s not primarily about power. All those things are byproducts, sparks. It’s primarily about the presence of God.

Timothy Keller
Image
God made you to love him supremely, but he lost you. He returned to get you back, but it took the cross to do it. He absorbed your darkness so that one day you can finally and dazzlingly become your true self and take your seat at his eternal feast.
Timothy Keller
Image
When pain and suffering come upon us, we finally see not only that we are not in control of our lives but that we never were.

Christianity does not set faith against thinking. It sets faith against assuming.
