Concise Quotes

A quick Biblical Point ( < 600 words )

If God’s Word cannot be trusted in one place, then it cannot be trusted in any place.

Quotes 3
If Scripture fails at one point, its authority collapses everywhere else. Biblical inerrancy is not negotiable in parts.

Life is full of compromises on this side of the grave. Not true on the other. 

Quotes 2
Every believer lives with compromise on this side of the grave, but heaven allows none. Here's what that means for how we live now.

The term “Secular Biblical Theologian” (of which there are many) is an oxymoron.

Atheism postulates that man has sufficient knowledge to categorically state that there is no God. What world religion has more faith than that?

God wrote the two tablets with His own fingers. If God took pains to write — well may we take pains to read! 

Quotes 0
God carved His law in stone with His own fingersu2014Thomas Watson insists our reading should carry that same weight of careful diligence.

We are too quick to apply sinful human morality as a measuring stick for an all-knowing God.

Quotes 0
We judge God by broken human fairness. Scripture says His ways and thoughts run higher than ours ever could.

Science should be the window that opens one up to the complexity of God.

Quotes 0
Science isn't a rival to faith - it's a window into the vast, intricate mind of the God who spoke the universe into being.

Close obedience of God is still failure.

Quotes 0
Saul's near-obedience cost him the kingdom. Scripture shows that partial compliance with God's commands is still open rebellion.

Evangelism – a focus on the joy of Heaven rather than the fear of Hell. 

Quotes 0
Real evangelism leads with the joy of Heaven, not just the fear of Hell - because the gospel is good news before it's a warning.

Of the 117 Billion Who Ever Lived on the Earth, None Have Been Lost (John 18:9)

Quotes 2
Jesus promised to lose none the Father gave Him—a promise of eternal security for believers, not universal salvation for all.

If you love money you will use people. If you love people you will use money. 

Quotes 0
Jarrod Scott's quote cuts to the heart: love money and you'll use people; love people and you'll rightly use money instead.

Those who limit their theology to “love thy neighbor” blend in with society, but not with Christ.

Quotes 2
Real faith doesn't stop at kindness. It confesses sin, bows to Christ's lordship, and proclaims the whole truth of the gospel.
