More quotes by Timothy Keller

Jesus is the author of faith, the provider of faith, and the object of faith.
Timothy Keller
Image
The gospel is this: We are more sinful and flawed in ourselves than we ever dared believe, yet at the very same time we are more loved and accepted in Jesus Christ than we ever dared hope.
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
Because creation was made in the image of a God who is equally one and many, the human race will finally be reunited and our racial and cultural diversity will remain intact in the renewed world. The human race finally lives together in peace and interdependence. Glory to God in the highest goes with peace on earth.
Timothy Keller
Image
If our identity is in our work, rather than Christ, success will go to our heads, and failure will go to our hearts.
Timothy Keller
Image
Religion makes us proud of what we have done. The Gospel makes us proud of what Jesus has done.
Timothy Keller
Image
Most apologetic books are really written for Christians, even the ones that purport to be written for non-believers.
Timothy Keller
Image
We think that idols are bad things, but that is almost never the case. The greater the good, the more likely we are to expect that it can satisfy our deepest needs and hopes. Anything can serve as a counterfeit god, especially the very best things in life.
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
The Gospel is news of what God has done to reach us. It is not advice about what we must do to reach God.
Timothy Keller
Image
If his suffering did not make Jesus give up on us, nothing will.
Timothy Keller
Image
There is a direct relationship between a person's grasp and experience of God's grace, and his or her heart for justice and the poor.
Timothy Keller
Image
Look at Jesus Christ. Every time he was in trouble he used the Word of God. When he was tempted he used the Word. When he was suffering on the cross he used the Word.
Timothy Keller
Image
When love of one's people becomes an absolute, it turns into racism. When love of equality turns into a supreme thing, it can result in hatred and violence toward anyone who has led a privileged life. It is the settled tendency of human societies to turn good political causes into counterfeit gods.
Timothy Keller
Image
A Christian is somebody whose eyes have been opened, who admits that Jesus is not what you expected, but he’s what you need.
Timothy Keller
Image
Ministry to the poor is a crucial sign that we believe the gospel.
Timothy Keller
Image
The resurrection makes Christianity the most irritating religion on the face of the earth.
Timothy Keller
Image
The gospel has two parts. It has the part that says you're a sinner, and it has the part that says you're loved and accepted.
Timothy Keller
Image
If Jesus rose from the dead, then you have to accept all he said.
Timothy Keller
Image
If you're a Christian how do you deal with stress without Jesus? You don't.
