"Paul has no intention to instruct the Christian community about the task and responsibility of government. His entire concern is with the responsibility of the Christian community towards the State."
"It is a wicked sophistry to justify the worldliness of the Church by the cross of Christ."
"It may be that no religious reconciliation with the absolute totality of things is possible. Some evils, indeed, are ministerial to higher forms of good; but it may be that there are forms of evil so extreme as to enter into no good system whatsoever."
"Cheap grace is the deadly enemy of our church. We are fighting today for costly grace."

"The proper biblical understanding of sin is much more radical and far-reaching. It can never be used as a weapon, because it will recoil on anyone who tries to deploy it that way."
"I should interweave my theology with prayer. I should frequently interrupt my talking about God by talking to God. Not far behind the theological sentence, "God is generous," should come the prayerful sentence, "Thank you, God." On the heels of, "God is glorious," should come, "I adore your glory." What I have come to see is that this is the way it must be if we are feeling God's reality in our hearts as well as describing it with our heads."

"Words can never adequately convey the incredible impact of our attitudes toward life. The longer I live the more convinced I become that life is 10 percent what happens to us and 90 percent how we respond to it."
"Attitude is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than what people do or say. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill."
"I cannot even imagine where I would be today were it not for that handful of friends who have given me a heart full of joy. Let's face it, friends make life a lot more fun."
"The secret of living a life of excellence is merely a matter of thinking thoughts of excellence. Really, it's a matter of programming our minds with the kind of information that will set us free."
"When I have a wrong attitude, I look at life humanly. When I have a right attitude, I look at life divinely."
"Good intentions and earnest effort are not enough. Only Jesus can make an otherwise futile life productive."
"Give us an intense distaste for things that displease You and a renewed pleasure in things that bring You honor and magnify Your truth."
"[Jesus] plan called for action, and how He expressed it predicted its success. He didn't say 'you *might* be my witnesses, ' or 'you *could* be my witnesses, ' or even 'you *should* be my witnesses.' He said 'you *will* be my witnesses."
"When you suffer and lose, that does not mean you are being disobedient to God. In fact, it might mean you're right in the center of His will. The path of obedience is often marked by times of suffering and loss."
