You and I are part of the colony of heaven. Right now, we may reside here on earth, but our passport indicates that our citizenship is in heaven. We are on the earth, but not of the earth.
4639 E.A. Bucchianeri
If Christ is God, He cannot sin, and if suffering was a sin in and by itself, He could not have suffered and died for us. However, since He took the most horrific death to redeem us, He showed us in fact that suffering and pain have great power.
4990 Unknown Author
I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.

Self-sufficiency is the enemy of salvation. If you are self-sufficient, you have no need of God. If you have no need of God, you do not seek Him. If you do not seek Him, you will not find Him.
1023 C.S. Lewis
We do know that no person can be saved except through Christ. We do not know that only those who know Him can be saved by Him.
2637 Arthur W. Pink
...Our Lord Jesus Christ added nothing to God in his essential being and glory, either by what He did or suffered. True, blessedly and gloriously true. He manifested the glory of God to us, but he added nought to God... Christ's goodness and rightousness reached unto His saints in the earth but God was high above and beyond it all....
4416 Tabitha Robin

[A] person whose head is bowed and whose eyes are heavy cannot look at the light.
2898 Christine De Pizan
[W]hen someone finds himself quite unjustly attacked and hated on all sides, there is no need for such a person to feel dismayed by misfortune. See how Fortune, who has harmed many a one, is so inconstant, for God, Who opposes all wrong deeds, raises up those in whom hope dwells.
3031 Patricia St. John
...stooping very low, He engraves with care
His Name, indelible, upon our dust;
And from the ashes of our self-despair,
Kindles a flame of hope and humble trust.
He seeks no second site on which to build,
But on the old foundation, stone by stone,
Cementing sad experience with grace,
Fashions a stronger temple of His own.
2336 Unknown Author
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved.

4141 Frederick Buechner
And now brothers, I will ask you a terrible question, and God knows I ask it also of myself. Is the truth beyond all truths, beyond the stars, just this: that to live without him is the real death, that to die with him the only life?
2217 Malcolm Muggeridge
The orgasm has replaced the Cross as the focus of longing and the image of fulfillment.
1253 Kevin Dalton

1219 Todd Starnes
The most pressing problem facing America can't be solved in Washington DC. True hope and change can't be found at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. It can only be found at the foot of the cross on Calvary.
4879 Boris Pasternak
Salvation lies not in the faithfulness to forms, but in the liberation from them.
1892 German Proverb
If God were not willing to forgive sin, heaven would be empty
1788 Ellen G. White
Before there could be any permanent reformation the people must be led to feel their utter inability in themselves to render obedience to God.
2456 Ellen G. White
It was only by faith in Christ that they could secure pardon of sin and receive strength to obey God's law. They must cease to rely upon their own efforts for salvation, they must trust wholly in the merits of the promised Saviour, if they would be accepted of God.
2342 Osunsakin Adewale
The best gift that you can give to your favourite person is to lead him or her to God.
2031 Horatius Bonar
For we are not saved by believing in our own salvation, nor by believing anything whatsoever about ourselves. We are saved by what we believe about the Son of God and His righteousness. The gospel believed saves; not the believing in our own faith.
4661 Ellen G. White
There is not a point that needs to be dwelt upon more earnestly, repeated more frequently, or established more firmly in the minds of all than the impossibility of fallen man meriting anything by his own best good works. Salvation is through faith in Jesus Christ alone.

4576 Michael Bassey Johnson
It is for your own good to love a dare-devil rather than a holy coward. A dare-devil is a unique devil, battling your fears, your pains, conquering your uncertainties, carrying you his arms, and flying out of the corrosive fire. The coward is a trickster serpent, which vanishes in your time of despair, and appears in time of equanimity.
1903 Luther Burbank
Science . . . has opened our eyes to the vastness of the universe and given us light, truth and freedom from fear where once was darkness, ignorance and superstition. There is no personal salvation, except through science.
1519 Billy Graham
Sincerity is the biggest part of selling anything - including the Christian plan of salvation.
2691 J.I. Packer
There is tremendous relief in knowing His love to me is utterly realistic, based at every point on prior knowledge of the worst about me , so that no discovery can disillusion him about me , in the way I am so often disillusioned about myself, and quench his determination to bless me.
2381 Martin Luther King Jr.
Only a "dry as dust" religion prompts a minister to extol the glories of Heaven while ignoring the social conditions that cause men an Earthly hell.
4097 John Wesley
No man that ever lived, not John Calvin himself, ever asserted either original sin, or justification by faith, in more strong, more clear and express terms, than Arminius has done.
3773 Jared Brock

Jesus is the seed of salvation and we are the fruit of redemption
3342 Quinesia Johnson
I am bundled in the warmth of
the price and the purchase, and its
solid completion, as in royal robes-
marvelous these royal robes!
These robes are authority that can
decree that trouble, sin of my heart,
and the deceptive obstruction of will
and reasoning
be sent to banishment.
4045 John Wesley
How is it more for the glory of God to save man irresistibly, than to save him as a free agent, by such grace as he may either concur or resist?
1423 James Arminius
Predestination therefore, as it regards the thing itself, is the Decree of the good pleasure of God in Christ, by which He resolved within Himself from all eternity, to justify, adopt, and endow with everlasting life, to the praise of His own glorious grace, believers on whom He had decreed to bestow faith.
3417 Anna White
I grew up believing Christians didn’t just believe in Jesus. To be saved, people had to look and speak a certain way. They followed a long list of nots to ensure their holiness. They fit the mold. They followed the rules.
4782 John Calvin
How do you know yourself to be a son of God in fact as well as in name?”
Answer: “Because I am baptized in the name of God the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.” - John Calvin (from his catechism)
2895 David Platt
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. Follow Me, pg. 11
1275 Ricky Maye
Jesus didn’t die to save me from God. Jesus died to save me from myself.
4083 T. Everett Smith

Trust in Jesus, wholeheartedly. Don't try to figure things out yourself. Just be intimate with Him!
3324 Brother Andrew
Christians need a new filling of the Holy Spirit to love those who disagree with them. And the greatest expression of love is to share with them the most precious thing a Christian has, which is the good news of the salvation of Jesus Christ.
4159 Tony Campolo
Because I am not yet living up to what Jesus expects me to be in those red letters in the Bible, I always define myself as somebody who is saved by God's grace and is on his way to becoming a Christian. (...) Being saved is trusting in what Christ did for us, but being Christian is dependent on the way we respond to what he did for us.
2763 Peter Kreeft
It is the Godfather, not God the Father, who makes you an offer you can’t refuse.
3477 Anthony Liccione
What is salvation without faith? is like
a Christmas tree without a star, is like
a kingdom without a king, is like
a heart without a beat, is like
a light switch that just won't turn on.
3827 Ethel Barrett
So Captain Faith conducted the prince and his mighty captains and men of war into the castle in the very heart of Mansoul. Prince Emmanuel had come home.
1575 J.D. Stroube
In that smooth fortress of glass, I caught a glimpse of my corruption gripping steel, which before I had thought of as my salvation, but now represented my obliteration.
2759 Adolf Guggenbühl-Craig
Marriage is not comfortable and harmonious. Rather it is a place of individuation where a person rubs up against oneself and against the partner, bumps up against the person in love and in rejection, and in this fashion learns to know oneself, the world, good and evil, the heights and the depths.
2727 Adolf Guggenbühl-Craig
For us the question is, has the marriage to do with well-being or with salvation? Is it a soteriological institution or a welfare institution?Is marriage, this opus contra natura a path to individuation or a way to well-being?
1984 Adolf Guggenbühl-Craig
A marriage only works if one opens to exactly that which one would never ask for otherwise. Only through rubbing oneself sore and losing oneself is one able to learn about oneself, God, and the world. Like every soteriological pathway, that of marriage is hard and painful.
2859 Adolf Guggenbühl-Craig
For those who are gifted for the soteriological pathway of marriage, it, like every such pathway, naturally offers not only trouble, work, and suffering but the deepest kind of existential satisfaction. Dante did not get to Paradiso without going through the Inferno. And so also there seldom exist "happy marriages".
3731 Adolf Guggenbhuhl-Craig
The central issue in the marriage is not well-being or happiness. It is, as this book has tried to demonstrate, salvation. Marriage involves not only a man and a woman who happily love each other and raise offspring together, but rather two people who are trying to individuate, to fond their soul's salvation.
4775 Adolf Guggenbhuhl-Craig
We are creatures whose behavior cannot be simply explained as a striving for survival and happiness, for release of tension and contentment.
3071 Adolf Guggenbhuhl-Craig
As soon as we confront concrete marriages with other foreign images-such as well-being, happiness, a home for children-marriage appears to be senseless, withered, moribund, and kept alive largely by a great apparatus of psychologists and marriage counselors. Marriage is dead. Long live marriage!
4385 J.E.B. Spredemann
Bishop Hostettler explained that baptism was not the means by which one is saved, but simply an outward sign of salvation. Just as an Amishman’s beard is an indication of his marriage and commitment to his wife, so baptism symbolizes our covenant with Christ.
4948 Virchand Gandhi
In the history of a soul’s evolution there is a critical point of the human incarnation that decides for us whether we stay there, go down or progress upwards. There is a knot of worldly desires impeding us; cut the knot by mastering desires and go forward. This done, progress is assured.
2868 Husam Wafaei
Let us all choose to become citizens of humanity rather than citizens of hate; perhaps collectively we can achieve the salvation of the human race from its own evil….
2804 Michael Bassey Johnson
Your real self may be hiding somewhere, look for it within, when you find yourself, you can freely be what you want to be.
4171 Gloria Furman
Because of the gospel - the news about what Jesus did on the cross to save sinners - mothers who make Christ their treasure can rejoice in their work as God works in them.
2630 Ikechukwu Izuakor
when men tarry in the place of prayer with broken hearts and wounded souls thirsty to reach out then revival is at the door post
3072 Marty Rubin
To be saved is to believe in one's own courage.
3980 Fyodor Dostoyevsky
We obtained literature by our own efforts, it is a product of our own life, and that is why we love it so much and hold it so dear, why we pin our hopes on it.
