• I'm hoping to know and teach a Gospel that is true to Scripture - and the Gospel that I see in the Bible is COSMIC (big enough to redeem all of Creation) and RELATIONAL (getting at the root of the Fall - the loss of our relational capacities).

• Podemos predicar el Evangelio todo el día, pero eso no ganará almas. Eso no ganará los corazones de la gente. Podemos hablar, tratar de teorizar, teologizar, razonar, argumentar, debatir y pasar tiempo tratando de probar que Jesús vivió, pero eso no ganará un corazón. ¿Con qué frecuencia vemos la mentalidad religiosa que cree que mientras más citas de las Escrituras, más gritos, más predicación de fuego del infierno y azufre, mayor es la oportunidad de ganar a alguien para el Reino? Del mismo modo, ¿cuántas veces vemos a la gente sentada o de pie escuchando en un silencio sepulcral o con indiferencia?

• Los hombres santos de la antigüedad fueron movidos por el Espíritu Santo y la revelación dada a ellos es la Palabra de Dios en las Sagradas Escrituras. ¿Acaso Dios habla menos hoy a través de hombres santos llamados por Dios para traer un mensaje a través de la revelación a esta generación? ... Agitamos nuestras Biblias y clamamos: 'Esta es la Palabra de' Dios'. Ciertamente es la Palabra de Dios, pero el Espíritu Santo todavía trae revelación a esta generación hoy que no es menos Palabra de Dios.... El profeta no es un método que Dios utiliza, sino que de hecho es el único método que utiliza para hablar a esta generación.

• ¿Y si uno de los elementos centrales de un cristianismo radical residiera en la exigencia de traicionarlo, mientras que el acto supremo de afirmar a Dios exigiera renunciar a él? ¿Y si la fidelidad a las escrituras judeocristianas exigiera su renuncia? En resumen, ¿y si la única forma de encontrar la fe implicara traicionarla con un beso?

• My conservative brothers and sisters seem to argue that God revealed everything to us in scripture. Ever since, it has simply been our difficult but straightforward task to conform ourselves to God's will revealed there and to repent when we are unable or unwilling to do so. For me, there is something static and lifeless in such a view of God. Could it be that even the Bible is too small a box in which to enclose God?

• Scripture does not say that God is 'love, love, love' or that He is 'wrath, wrath, wrath,' but that He is 'holy, holy, holy.'

• The reading of the word of God should be performed in solitude, in order that the whole mind of the reader might be plunged into the truths of the Holy Scripture, and that from this he might receive warmth, which in solitude produces tears; from these a man is wholly warmed and is filled with spiritual gifts, which rejoice the mind and heart more than any word.

• I keep a lot of my old baseball hats, and if you look in the hats I've had since I started pitching, you'll see 'Philippians 4:13′ written on the brim. That's the Scripture that gets me through the day because sometimes you can't do it all by yourself. You can't do it on your own, so you lean on Him.

• The only way for us to make sense of life today is to appreciate where the future is going. Scripture outlines that future, not with detailed dates, but with a general outline of what is to come. That outline is designed not to have us prepare charts, but to prepare our hearts.

• Scripture is profitable for training in righteousness. No one succeeds at the highest level in sports without working out. No one makes it in music without lots of practice. No one excels in scholarship without years of study. And no one makes it far in the school of holiness without hours and days and years in the word. You and I simply will not mature as quickly, minister as effectively, or live as gloriously without immersing ourselves in the Scriptures. We need the Bible if we are to be competent Christians.

• If I try to make only enough money for my family' immediate needs, it may violate Scripture. ...Even though earning just enough to meet the needs of my family may seem non materialistic, it's actually selfish when I could earn enough to care for others as well.

• Contemplad las obras de nuestros filósofos; con toda su pomposa dicción, ¡cuán mezquinas y despreciables son en comparación con las Escrituras! ¿Es posible que un libro tan sencillo y sublime a la vez sea sólo obra del hombre?

• We may compare the Bible to the Old Testament Tabernacle in the wilderness with its three courts. The outer court is the letter of the Scriptures; the inner court, or holy place, is the truth of the Scriptures; the holiest place of all is the person of Jesus Christ; and only when we pass the inmost veil do we come to Him.

• Let this point therefore stand: that those whom the Holy Spirit has inwardly taught truly rest upon Scripture, and that Scripture itself is self-authenticated. . . . Therefore, illumined by his power, we believe neither by our own nor by any one else's judgment that Scripture is from God; but above human judgment we affirm with utter certainty (just as if we were gazing upon the majesty of God himself) that it has flowed to us from the very mouth of God by the ministry of men.

• You know the Scripture says "be not deceived for God is not mocked; whatsoever a man sow that shall he also reap." And one day, I don't know how they're going to get it, but they're going to get some of it back. They are scared to death and are more afraid now than we are.
