"If we make the mistake of thinking that our works of love (the fruit of God's Spirit) secure or increase God's commitment to be completely for us now, and in the last judgement, we compromise the very reason that these works of love exist, namely to display the infinite worth of Christ and His work as our all-sufficient obedience and all-sufficient sacrifice".
John Piper - "The Future of Justification: A Response to N T Wright" - IVP, Nottingham (2008) - (p186).
"The man who never reads will never be read. He who never quotes will never be quoted. He who will not use the thoughts of other men's brains proves that he has no brains of his own ... You need to read" - C H Spurgeon. "To fail to learn from the pulpit of the past is to impoverish that of the present" - Tony Sargent
