Text Quotes
My life is a blank check before God... No strings attached  (David Platt Quotes) Give liberally. Go urgently. Live dangerously  (David Platt Quotes) The primary reward of the gospel - God himself  (David Platt Quotes) God has made a way of salvation for the lost. Not a way, but the way. And this is the good news - the gospel  (David Platt Quotes) No sound system. No band. No guitar. No entertainment. No cushioned chairs. No heating or air-con. Nothing but the people of God and the word of God. And strangely, that’s enough. God’s Word is enough for millions of believers who gather in house churches... Jungles... Rainforests, and middle-eastern cities. But is his Word enough for us?  (David Platt Quotes) People who claim to be Christians while their lives look no different from the rest of the world are clearly not Christians  (David Platt Quotes) Good intentions, regular worship, Bible study, do not prevent blindness. Part of our sinful nature instinctively chooses to see what we want to see and to ignore what we want to ignore  (David Platt Quotes) The message of biblical Christianity is ‘God loves me so that I might make him- his ways, his salvation, his glory, and his greatness- known among all nations.’ Now God is the object of our faith, and Christianity centers around him. We are not the end of the gospel; God is’  (David Platt Quotes) Jesus is not some puny religious teacher begging for an invitation from anyone. He is the all-sovereign Lord who deserves submission from everyone  (David Platt Quotes) We can rest confident in the fact that nothing will happen to us in this world apart from the gracious will of a sovereign God. Nothing  (David Platt Quotes) The gospel reveals the glory of God. According to God’s Word, he is the sovereign Creator of all things  (David Platt Quotes) So what is the difference between someone who willfully indulges in sexual pleasures while ignoring the Bible on moral purity and someone who willfully indulges in the selfish pursuit of more and more material possessions while ignoring the Bible on caring for the poor? The difference is that one involves a social taboo in the church and the other involves the social norm in the church  (David Platt Quotes) But then I realize there is never going to be a day when I stand before God and He looks at me and says, ‘I wish you would have kept more for yourself.’ I’m confident that God will take care of me  (David Platt Quotes) Radical obedience to Christ is not easy... It’s not comfort, not health, not wealth, and not prosperity in this world. Radical obedience to Christ risks losing all these things. But in the end, such risk finds its reward in Christ. And he is more than enough for us  (David Platt Quotes) This is the curse of superficial religion: the constant attempt to do outward things apart from inward transformation  (David Platt Quotes) That is relinquishing control in a culture that prioritizes control and doing what you need to do in order to advance yourself  (David Platt Quotes) Who God is and what Christ did have huge implications for who we are personally and what we desire sexually  (David Platt Quotes) God involves us in his mission not because he needs us but because he loves us  (David Platt Quotes) The road that leads to heaven is risky, lonely, and costly in this world, and few are willing to pay the price. Following Jesus involves losing your life-and finding new life in him  (David Platt Quotes) My prayer is that people will see that following Jesus costs you everything you are and everything you have. And my prayer is that people will see that Jesus is worth it.  (David Platt Quotes) Who God is and what Christ did have huge implications for who we are personally and what we desire sexually.  (David Platt Quotes) On popular issues like poverty and slavery, where Christians are likely to be applauded for our social action, we are quick to stand up and speak out. Yet on controversial issues like homosexuality and abortion, where Christians are likely to be criticized for our involvement, we are content to sit down and stay quiet.  (David Platt Quotes) That is relinquishing control in a culture that prioritizes control and doing what you need to do in order to advance yourself.  (David Platt Quotes) God in His providence hasn’t called us to watch history, but to shape history by praying in His Name.  (David Platt Quotes) You and I can choose to continue with business as usual in the Christian life and in the church as a whole, enjoying success based on the standards defined by the culture around us. Or we can take an honest look at the Jesus of the Bible and dare to ask what the consequences might be if we really believed him and really obeyed him.  (David Platt Quotes) We do not follow a health and wealth savior. We follow a homeless and wounded Savior  (David Platt Quotes) When we consider the promises of Christ, risking everything we are and everything we have for His sake is no longer a matter of sacrifice. It’s just common sense  (David Platt Quotes) The journey begins, though, with understanding what it means to be a christian. To say you believe in Jesus apart from conversion in your life completely misses the essence of what it means to follow him. Do not be deceived  (David Platt Quotes) The most glorious reason you exist is for the proclamation of the glory of God to the ends of the world. And it’s more than having a nice life  (David Platt Quotes) The church is not an audience of spectators; we are a fellowship of disciple-makers  (David Platt Quotes)
