Space, Time and Jesus
“If the Temple was the space in which God’s sphere and the human sphere met, the sabbath was the time when God’s time and human time coincided.”
N.T. Wright, Simply Jesus. (HaperCollins Limited, 2011) 136.
the gospel and sanctification
“If we would be sanctified, our course is clear and plain–we must begin with Christ. We must go to Him as sinners, with no plea but that of utter need, and cast our souls on Him by faith…If we would grow in holiness and become more sanctified, we must continually go on as we began, and be ever making fresh applications to Christ.”
-J.C. Ryle, Holiness (Cambridge, UK: James Clarke, 1956), 32. Quoted in Jared C. Wilson’s Gospel Wakfulness (Wheaton, Ill: Crossway, 2011), 135.
Jesus and gospel change
The secret of gospel change is being convinced that Jesus is the good life and the fountain of all joy. Any alternative we choose would be the letdown.
-Tim Chester, You Can Change
