If you say: I believed in God, I trusted God and He didn't come through - You only trusted God to meet your agenda.
Timothy Keller

Jesus Christ doesn’t just give us truths he is the truth. Jesus Christ is the prophet to end all prophets. He gives us hard-copy words from God, truths on which we can build our lives, truths we have to submit to, truths we have to obey, and truths we have to build our lives on, but he himself is the truth.

[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.

Cities have more “image of God” per square inch than anywhere else, and so we must not idealize the country as somehow a more spiritual place than the city.
Timothy Keller
Image
Jesus is not asking us to do anything for him that he hasn’t already done for us, under conditions of difficulty beyond our comprehension.
Timothy Keller
Image
The future is already won, and the more hostile the culture, the easier it is to communicate the difference of Christianity.
Timothy Keller
Image
Prayer-though it is often draining, even an agony-is in the long term the greatest source of power that is possible.
Timothy Keller
Image
Jesus came into this world not as a philosopher or a general but as a carpenter. All work matters to God.
Timothy Keller

Idolatry happens when we take good things and make them ultimate things
Timothy Keller
Image
If you have money, power, and status today, it is due to the century and place in which you were born, to your talents and capacities and health, none of which you earned. In short, all your resources are in the end the gift of God.
Timothy Keller
Image
One of the signs that you may not grasp the unique, radical nature of the gospel is that you are certain that you do.
Timothy Keller
Image
By praying with friends, you will be able to hear and see facets of Jesus that you have not yet perceived.
Timothy Keller
Image
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.
