More quotes by Timothy Keller
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
Every other religion points to answers. Jesus, though, says 'I am the answer'.
Timothy Keller
If we give God things in hope that they'll earn us blessings, we're really not doing anything for him. It's for ourselves.
Timothy Keller
The common moral framework: Do anything as long as it does no harm to others. Problem: Whose definition of harm?
Timothy Keller
The church is not a museum for pristine saints, but a hospital ward for broken sinners.
Timothy Keller
The Gospel is this: You're more sinful, evil and weak than you'd ever believe. But you're more valued, accepted and loved than you dared hope.
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
Fear, logic, and tradition are not going to make you live a good life when no one is looking.
Timothy Keller
[T]he main problem in life is sin, and the only solution is God and his grace. The alternative to this view is to identify something besides sin as the main problem with the world and something besides God as the main remedy. That demonizes something that is not completely bad, and makes an idol out of something that cannot be the ultimate good.
Timothy Keller
Public faith means going public with what’s in your heart, with humility and respect for others, as we speak of the truth of the gospel.
Timothy Keller
It is possible to avoid Jesus as Savior as much by keeping all the Biblical rules as by breaking them.
Timothy Keller
The primary means-of-reviva l that everyone agrees upon is extraordinary prayer.
Timothy Keller
We are free to fight sin, and free to win but we must still fight.
Timothy Keller
To say doctrine doesn't matter, only how you live matters, is itself a doctrine. It's the doctrine of salvation by works.
Timothy Keller
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?
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
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
We modern people think of miracles as the suspension of the natural order, but Jesus meant them to be the restoration of the natural order.
Timothy Keller
The gospel is an exclusive truth but it's the most inclusive exclusive truth in the world.
Timothy Keller
You can't live the Christian life without a band of Christian friends, without a family of believers in which you find a place.
