Quotes about Redemption

The Book of Mormon changes lives.

Every treasure on this earth says, 'Give your life to purchase me.' Jesus says 'I'm the one treasure who died to purchase you.'

Whatever you base your life on--you have to live up to that. Jesus is the one Lord you can live for who already died for you.

The gospel is not just the "ABCs" but the "A-to-Z" of the Christian life.

Because Jesus came to secure for us what we could never secure for ourselves, life doesn't have to be a tireless effort to establish ourselves, justify ourselves, validate ourselves.

The gospel is not about a lifestyle that we live, it's about the law-fulfilling life that Christ lived.

For the life of the believer, one thing is beautifully and abundantly true: God's chief concern in your suffering is to be with you and be himself for you.

No one can hate you in this life more than Jesus was hated.

Life is chaotic. It's messy. That's what Jesus was stepping into.

I punish myself for my whole life, my whole life I punish.

By virtue of being created by God, the world knows how to live and is under obligation to live that way, but it has declined. It has thus "profaned" the earth, made it something God no longer wishes to have anything to do with, something God could not continue to have anything to do with without compromising who he is.

somehow we have overlooked the fact this treasured called the heart can also be broken, has been broken, and now lies in pieces down under the surface. When it comes to habits we cannot quit or patterns we cannot stop, anger that flies out of nowhere, fears we cannot overcome, or weaknesses we hate to admit--much of what troubles us comes out of the broken places in our hearts crying out for relief. Jesus speaks as if we are all brokenhearted. We would do well to trust His perspective on this.
