Mercy and grace must be voluntary or they are no longer mercy and grace.

Here then is the real problem of our negligence. We fail in our duty to study God's Word not so much because it is difficult to understand, not so much because it is dull and boring, but because it is work. Our problem is not a lack of intelligence or a lack of passion. Our problem is that we are lazy.

Every idol, if you scratch it, is a mirror. We worship ourselves.

We've replaced the proclamation of Christ with an easy-listening legalism of do more and try harder.

Nothing could be more irrational than the idea that something comes from nothing.

We are all servants. The only question is whom we will serve.

When the gospel is at stake, everything is at stake.

In Reformed theology, if God is not sovereign over the entire created order, then he is not sovereign at all. The term sovereignty too easily becomes a chimera. If God is not sovereign, then he is not God.

We have a generation of people who think they can stand before the judgment seat of God despite their sins.

To honor God as God, we must worship Him as He and He alone decrees.
