Good grief for one’s sins is believing grief – believing in the love of the Father, the saving grace of his Son, and the power of the Holy Spirit. (Jack Miller) What is Jesus doing at the right hand of God? He is seated. “If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God” (Col. 3:1). It’s a visual picture of Jesus’s words “It is finished” (John 19:30). @WilbourneWisdom The key to mortifying fleshly lusts is to eliminate the emptiness within me and replace it with fullness; and I accomplish this by feasting on the Gospel. @MiltonVincent When you understand God‘s love for you, then you have t...

Jesus took the punishment for our sin so we can cry out to God like the tax collector and God will forgive us. #thegospelprojectkids Christian living goes by the same ground rules as Christian conversion... We never advance beyond grace. We never graduate to “deeper things.” Sanctification gets traction from the positive energy of justification. @rayortlund via @WhiteHorseInn I’m personally thankful that God doesn’t function like cosmic karma. I’m banking it all on Jesus and grace. @ElyseFitz The Bible teaches that genuine love in my heart for God is generated by an awareness of his love for me, and nowhere is the love of God more clearly revealed than in the gospel. @MiltonVincent The solas preserve both the integrity of the gospel and the unity o...

If you like the tweet, go and follow the person on Twitter. Jesus cleanses us from both the penalty and the power of our sins - he is the double cure. He not only declares us holy, but he also empowers us to be holy. Union with Christ means Christ is in you. @WilbourneWisdom The gospel also reminds me that my righteous standing with God always holds firm regardless of my performance, because my standing is based solely on the work of Jesus and not mine.  @MiltonVincent #agospelprimer As Savior, Jesus seeks sinners. He paid the ultimate price—His own life—to save people from sin. #thegospelprojectkids We miss the message of the Bible when we read it as though we’re doing our algebra homework, so we can get a good grade from God for the day. @ElyseFitz Galatians 3:3. The gospel is for Christians too. @ja...

If you like the tweet, go and follow the person on Twitter. You can never, ever assume the Gospel. Everything we do in Discipleship must be anchored in the Gospel – what Christ has done for us. @MichaelHorton_ interview on @theocast_org What the devil wants us to do is to lose sight of Christ’s part in the change process. Therefore, any change, any victory over sinful habits, has to start with you exercising more faith in your sovereign Senior Partner. (Jack Miller) The gospel, then, cannot be treated simply as a message for unbelievers, as the doorway into the Christian life; in order for Christians to grow they must be kept in the sunshine of the gospel. @timchestercouk @mike_reeves Our response to what God has done is a life characterized not by striving but by thanking, a life of gratitude—that’s what God...
