Quotes about God

How awesome of God to purpose that Christ's royal lineage would come through His adoptive father. We shouldn't be surprised at the profound significance with which God views adoption. Ephesians 1:4—6 tells us something profound about God's view of adoption. It identifies us as the adopted children of God. In a peculiar kind of way, God the Father allowed His Son to be "adopted" into a family on earth so that we could be adopted into His family in heaven.

Keep yourselves in the love of God, expecting the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ for eternal life. Jude 21

Unbelief. Oh, they believed in God. Their oversight was that they simply didn't believe the God they believed in.

Humility can be rather easily obtained by opening our eyes to reality—filling our minds and hearts with the greatness of God.

What a relief to know that we'll never battle anything out of God's jurisdiction.

Time by itself does nothing but grow us old. It's what we do with time that makes all the difference. We often say, "Time heals," yet I've known just as many that time embittered. Only God heals. Only God restores. Only God effectively prepares, teaches, equips, and matures. But you can count on Him to use the test tube of time in which to accomplish it.

We have sworn an oath to them by the LORD, the God of Israel, and now we cannot touch them. Joshua 9:19
