Jesus is supposed to be the Alpha and the Omega, but in the Bible he's neither. He's stuck in the middle like the letter Q.

Jesus doesn’t make up the difference. Jesus makes all the difference. Grace is not about filling gaps. It is about filling us.

The design of redemption is to exhibit the grace of God in such a manner as to fill all hearts with wonder and all lips with praise.

The eye fixed on Christ sees clearly, succumbing to neither pride nor inferiority, because it is not concerned with the self at all.

You can never be really sure of how much you believe anything until its truth or falsehood becomes a matter of life or death to you.

It doesn’t matter who we are or where we’ve been, God sent His Son for us – that’s the beauty of the Gospel.

Every time you ask for forgiveness, you recognize that the biggest problems you face in life exist inside of you, not outside of you.

God never hurries. There are no deadlines against which he must work. Only to know this is to quiet our spirits and relax our nerves.

Stripe for stripe is human law; "by His stripes we are healed" is superhuman, the result of a legislation as gracious as it is divine.

God against man. Man against God. Man against nature. Nature against man. Nature against God. God against nature. Very funny religion!
