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
Freedom is not the absence of limitations and constraints but it is finding the right ones, those that fit our nature and liberate us.
Timothy Keller
Image
Doing justice includes not only the righting of wrongs but generosity and social concern, especially toward the poor and vulnerable.
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
You are more sinful than you could dare imagine and you are more loved and accepted than you could ever dare hope.
Timothy Keller
Image
Prayer is awe before an infinite force, and yet it's intimacy with a personal friend.
Timothy Keller
Image
God loves you just because He loves you.
Timothy Keller

A Christian is one who stops working to be saved, not one who stops working!
Timothy Keller

Timothy Keller
Image
If God is not at the center of your life, something else is.

Careful obedience to God’s law may serve as a strategy for rebelling against God
Timothy Keller
Image
A person's faith can collapse almost overnight if she failed over the years to listen patiently to her own doubts, which should only be discarded after long reflection.
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.
Timothy Keller
Image
If you have a small view of your sin, God's grace will be small to you.
Timothy Keller
Image
Grace is to be let into a place that you don't have a right to be.
Timothy Keller
Image
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
Image
Where you find your significance is where you find your salvation.
Timothy Keller
Image
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
Image
Jesus does not just bring good news he is the good news.
Timothy Keller
Image
We only fully grasp the gospel when we understand, as Paul did, that we are the worst sinner we know
