More quotes by Timothy Keller
If you are trying to live a life in accordance with the Bible, the concept and call to justice are inescapable. We do justice when we give all human beings their due as creations of God. Doing justice includes not only the righting of wrongs but generosity and social concern, especially toward the poor and vulnerable.
Timothy Keller
Jesus cannot be just liked. His claims make us either kill him or crown him.
Timothy Keller
On the cross Jesus was treated as an outcast so that we could be brought into God's family freely by grace.
Timothy Keller
It is impossible to forgive someone if you feel superior to him or her.
Timothy Keller
In the secular view, suffering is never seen as a meaningful part of life but only as an interruption.
Timothy Keller
The infallible test of spiritual integrity, Jesus says, is your private prayer life.
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 we have not seen our sin and sought radical forgiveness from God, we will be unable to forgive and to seek the good of those who have wronged us.
Timothy Keller
Do you realize that it is only in the gospel of Jesus Christ that you get the verdict before the performance?
Timothy Keller
God's grace and forgiveness, while free to the recipient, are always costly for the giver. From the earliest parts of the Bible, it was understood that God could not forgive without sacrifice. No one who is seriously wronged can “just forgive” the perpetrator.
Timothy Keller
Friendship is a deep oneness that develops when two people, speaking the truth in love to one another, journey together to the same horizon.
Timothy Keller
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
The essence of Christian obedience is not do’s and don’ts but personal allegiance to Jesus.
Timothy Keller
The Bible judges the church the church does not judge the Bible. The Bible is the foundation for and the creator of the church the church is not the foundation for or creator of the Bible. The church and its hierarchy must be evaluated by the believer with the biblical gospel as the touchstone or plumb line for judging all truth claims.
Timothy Keller
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
Suffering dispels the illusion that we have the strength and competence to rule our own lives and save ourselves.
Timothy Keller
You dont fall into love. You commit to it. Love is saying I will be there no matter what.
Timothy Keller
Most people want Jesus as a consultant rather than a King, and He does not come that way.
Timothy Keller
The world values power, comfort, success, and recognition. Jesus frees us to value grief, sacrifice, weakness, and exclusion.
Timothy Keller
I am going to judge my circumstances by Jesus’ love, not Jesus’ love by my circumstances.
Timothy Keller
