You might be a sincere and kind person, motivated by the best of intentions, but unless you are living under the lordship of Jesus, you are opposing God.

Nothing is beyond the redemptive scope of God’s goodness. He can take the apparent unmitigated loss of Stephen being stoned to death and use it to bring about the conversion of St. Paul.

The church must be adaptive in its means, but unshakable in its ends. Don’t ever compromise on the main thing – the preaching of Jesus Christ through the word of God.

Anyone, anywhere can be forgiven and saved, not because of who you are, but because of who Jesus is.

Don’t bow down to the altar of worldly wealth. Instead, overflow with hearts of generosity and fully trust in the Lord Jesus Christ.

We can rejoice with boldness in the face of persecution, because even hardship serves a purpose under the loving, sovereign hand of God.

In the lame beggar we see a picture of our spiritual state before Christ. We are poor, needy and without hope in ourselves, but we have a Saviour who reaches down and raises us up.

Christian devotion, as described in the early church, looks like dedication to apostolic teaching, fellowship, the breaking of bread together, and prayer.

The Spirit has been poured out so that you can know that the Jesus who was crucified has been made Lord and Christ.

Every legitimate experience of the Holy Spirit is rooted in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus.

Jesus Christ is ascended and is now seated in heaven as the judge, with the scars that prove that your sins are forgiven.

Every single thing that we do and teach is only possible because the Risen Jesus ascended into heaven and sent his Spirit. The heart of every Christian should desire more of the Spirit, that we might effectively bear witness to the good news of the gospel.
