True freedom is not the liberty to do anything we please, but the liberty to do what we ought; and it is genuine liberty because doing what we ought now pleases us (D A Carson Quotes)
The person who loves his life will lose it: it could not be otherwise, for to love one’s life is a fundamental denial of God’s sovereignty, of God’s rights, and a brazen elevation of self to the apogee of one’s perception, and therefore an idolatrous focus on self, which is the heart of all sin (D A Carson Quotes)
God’s love in John 3:16 is not amazing because the world is so big, but because the world is so bad (D A Carson Quotes)
Most good evangelical Study Bibles have more in common than people sometimes realize. All of them are committed to explaining the Bible to lay readers (D A Carson Quotes)
To worship God ‘in spirit and in truth’ is first and foremost a way of saying that we must worship God by means of Christ. In him the reality has dawned and the shadows are being swept away (Hebrews 8:13). Christian worship is new covenant worship; it is gospel-inspired worship; it is Christ-centered worship; it is cross-focused worship (D A Carson Quotes)
Hell is not filled with people who are deeply sorry for their sins. It is filled with people who for all eternity still shake their puny fist in the face of God Almighty (D A Carson Quotes)
Both God’s love and God’s wrath are ratcheted up in the move from the old covenant to the new, from the Old Testament to the New. These themes barrel along through redemptive history, unresolved, until they come to a resounding climax - in the cross (D A Carson Quotes)
Do you wish to see God’s love? Look at the cross. Do you wish to see God’s wrath? Look at the cross (D A Carson Quotes)
Damn all false antitheses to hell, for they generate false gods, they perpetuate idols, they twist and distort our souls, they launch the church into violent pendulum swings who oscillations succeed only in dividing brothers and sisters in Christ (D A Carson Quotes)
The Bible does not tell us that life in this world will be fair. Evil and sin are not Victorian gentlemen; they do not play fair (D A Carson Quotes)
If you want to see what judgment looks like, go to the cross. If you want to see what love looks like, go to the cross (D A Carson Quotes)
God’s love in John 3:16 is not amazing because the world is so big, but because the world is so bad. (D A Carson Quotes)
There needs to be a place in the church or just outside - there needs to be a place where people feel free to ask questions without being put upon, where they feel free to ask difficult, challenging questions to voice their skepticism. (D A Carson Quotes)
No one believes more strongly than I do that every Christian should be a theologian. In that sense, we all need to work it out. I want all Christians who can read, to read their Bibles and to read beyond the Bible - to read the history and theology. (D A Carson Quotes)
Effectiveness in teaching the Bible is purchased at the price of much study, some of it lonely, all of it tiring. (D A Carson Quotes)
The Gospel itself is angular. It always has been. It always conflicts. It always challenges every generation. It challenges different generations in different ways. (D A Carson Quotes)
Prayer is God’s appointed means for appropriating the blessings that are ours in Christ Jesus (D A Carson Quotes)
I do think that there is a hunger in the land for a vision of confessional Christianity that is robust, God-centered, tough-minded, able to address today and tomorrow and the next day, and comprehensive. (D A Carson Quotes)
God is a talking God, and thus you must come to wrestle with him. You must wrestle with what he said. (D A Carson Quotes)
A billion years or so into eternity, how many toys we accumulated during this life will not seem too terribly important (D A Carson Quotes)
Many of us in our praying are like nasty little boys who ring front door bells and run away before anyone answers (D A Carson Quotes)
We do not drift into spiritual life or disciplined prayer. We will not grow in prayer unless we plan to pray (D A Carson Quotes)
The kingdom of heaven is worth infinitely more than the cost of discipleship, and those who know where the treasure lies joyfully abandon everything else to secure it (D A Carson Quotes)
Failure to believe stems from moral failure to recognize the truth, not from want of evidence, but from willful neglect or distortion of the evidence (D A Carson Quotes)
... sometimes God chooses to bless us and make us people of integrity in the midst of abominable circumstances, rather than change our circumstances (D A Carson Quotes)
... the worst possible heritage to leave with children: high spiritual pretensions and low performance (D A Carson Quotes)
Either worrying drives out prayer, or prayer drives out worrying (D A Carson Quotes)
Some forms of absolutism are not bad; they may even be heroic (D A Carson Quotes)
A prayerless person is a disaster waiting to happen (D A Carson Quotes)
The way you lose the gospel is not by denying it, but by assuming it (D A Carson Quotes)
