More quotes by Tullian Tchividjian
Whether it's a Christian or a non-Christian, there's nothing like suffering to show us how small, needy, and not in control we are. Suffering has a way of sobering us up to the realization that we can't make it on our own, that we need help, that we're broken.
Tullian Tchividjian
Thankfully, while our self-righteousness reaches far, God's grace reaches farther.
Tullian Tchividjian
When you fail to distinguish Law and Gospel, you lose both.
Tullian Tchividjian
Only when you realize that the gospel has nothing to do with your obedience but with Christ's obedience for you, will you start to obey. The only Christians who end up getting better are those who realize that if they don't get better, God will love them anyway.
Tullian Tchividjian
Christian growth doesn't happen by first behaving better, but by believing better--believi ng in bigger, deeper, brighter ways what Christ has already secured for sinners.
Tullian Tchividjian
Once God saves us He doesn't move us beyond the gospel, but He moves us more deeply into the gospel.
Tullian Tchividjian
People who haven't experienced major setbacks sometimes feel that their hurts are somehow less legitimate or real.
Tullian Tchividjian
Holy Saturday. The best reminder that the silence of God doesn't equal the absence of God.
Tullian Tchividjian
My daily sins require daily distribution of God's grace. In that sense, it never ceases to surprise me because I don't deserve any of it. I mean, I deserve to be locked in a cage and for God to throw away the key.
Tullian Tchividjian
Assurance never comes from looking at ourselves. It only comes as a consequence of looking to Christ.
Tullian Tchividjian
Only the gospel can truly save you. The gospel doesn't make bad people good it makes dead people alive...the gospel is God's acceptance of us based on what Christ has done, not on what we can do.
Tullian Tchividjian
Sometimes God has to remind you that you're weak so that you can be set free from your self-sufficiency.
Tullian Tchividjian
Legalism says God will love us if we change. The gospel says God will change us because He loves us.
Tullian Tchividjian
A biblical understanding of the Christian life is not 'let go and let God,' it's 'trust God and get going.'
Tullian Tchividjian
Whatever we may mean by 'Christian growth,' it is ultimately this: less faith in me, more faith in God.
Tullian Tchividjian
The way of God's grace becomes indispensable when we realize that the way of God's law is inflexible.
Tullian Tchividjian
Grace could not have done it’s curing work if the law had not first done its crushing work.
Tullian Tchividjian
Grace is the most dangerous, expectation-wre cking, smile-creating, counterintuitiv e reality there is.
Tullian Tchividjian
The Bible makes it clear that self-righteousness is the premier enemy of the Gospel.
Tullian Tchividjian
Nothing makes me want to obey more than knowing that God unconditionally loves me and forgives me even when I disobey.
