| One of the most staggering truths of the Scriptures is to understand that we do not earn our way to heaven. ...works have a place--but as a demonstration of having received God's forgiveness, not as a badge of merit of having earned it. Author: Ravi Zacharias |
| Many people hear the Word of God, but to some of them it is only words; they do not accept it as the Word of God. What a paradox it is that all creation obeys His Word except we who are made in the image of God and have the ability to choose. Author: Theodore Epp |

He is not aware that he ministers in the time of the ascended Christ, the time of the fulfillment of all the prophets in his saving rule. Author: Edmund Clowney |
