Theology

“Everything hinges on the Christ of the cross. The fact of the cross is the axiom of theological thought. It is impossible to think about the gospel if we have the slightest hesitation on this point. We must determine to carry this theme throughout all the problems of theology without exception... The essence of God can be comprehended only from the 'word of the cross.”

“If we displease God, does it matter whom we please? If we please Him does it matter whom we displease?”
― Leonard Ravenhill, Why Revival Tarries: A Classic on Revival

“The greatest miracle that God can do today is to take an unholy man out of an unholy world and make him holy, then put him back into that unholy world and keep him holy in it.”

“Take the fact that you were created to love. Your heart can find real joy only through love - through loving and being loved.”
