Works vs. Rest

“Jesus didn’t die so we could amass a spiritual resumé of good works but so that we could rest in his righteousness as we obey out of love and humility.” -- Caleb Flores

The Most Incredible Promise of All

“Abraham was a former idol-worshiper from Ur who was well past the age for fathering children when God promised him numerous descendants and worldwide blessing. All the patriarch did was believe this incredible promise, and God counted him righteous. But Paul says this truth is about more than Abraham; it applies to us as well. We too can be declared righteous by God if we will only trust in that most incredible promise of all, namely, that the death and resurrection of Christ is the basis of our right standing with God. Justification by faith is not a new doctrine.” -- David Burnette

Gospel Quotes - The Only Riches You Are Promised

"Jesus’ death means he has taken on your sin, in exchange for his righteousness. God has shown us “the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus” (Eph. 2:7). These are the only riches you are promised in this life—the joy and peace that comes with knowing that you have a good and loving God who has saved you at the infinite cost of his only Son." -- Caleb Flores
