“Growing in the gospel does not mean we come to need it less, but that we realise our need for it even more.”

“The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost.” (1 Timothy 1:15 #ESV)

#KnowingGod #JIPacker #Chapter7:

“God does not change…

1. God’s life does not change…

2. God’s character does not change…

3. God’s truth does not change…

4. God’s ways do not change…

5. God’s purposes do not change…

6. God’s Son does not change. Jesus Christ is ‘the same yesterday and today and for ever’ (Heb. 13: 8), and his touch has still its ancient power. It still remains true that ‘he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them’ (Heb. 7: 25). He never changes. This fact is the strong consolation of all God’s people.”

“But is the work of the Holy Spirit really important? Important! Why, were it not for the work of the Holy Spirit there would be no gospel, no faith, no church, no Christianity in the world at all.”

#KnowingGod #JIPacker #Chapter5…

“‘The Word became flesh’ (John 1: 14); God became man; the divine Son became a Jew; the Almighty appeared on earth as a helpless human baby, unable to do more than lie and stare and wriggle and make noises, needing to be fed and changed and taught to talk like any other child. And there was no illusion or deception in this: the babyhood of the Son of God was a reality. The more you think about it, the more staggering it gets. Nothing in fiction is so fantastic as is this truth of the incarnation.”

“God did not show them a visible symbol of himself, but spoke to them; therefore they are not now to seek visible symbols of God, but simply to obey his word.”

#KnowingGod #JIPacker #Chapter3…

“What makes life worth while is having a big enough objective, something which catches our imagination and lays hold of our allegiance; and this the Christian has, in a way that no other person has. For what higher, more exalted, and more compelling goal can there be than to know God?”

“And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.” – John 17:3 (#ESV)
