“The central basis of Christian assurance is not how much our hearts are set on God, but how unshakably his heart is set on us.”

“Tim couldn’t help but testify to the God who knew him completely and loved him perfectly,” @CollinHansen writes. “I want to spend my life the same way. I want to die the same way, trying to help everyone see their desperate need for Jesus.”

Praise God for Tim Keller, the gentle giant, who made it to the end being kind to his enemies and showing us how to hope in the resurrection all the way home.

"Weak saints are as much united to Christ, as much justified by Christ, as much reconciled by Christ, and as much pardoned by Christ, as the strongest saints."

Our son Sam, who died of leukaemia at 17, had Down Syndrome. Some people might write there that he “suffered” this chromosomal disorder, but that simply wouldn’t be true. 1/9

Jesus "preached" or 'heralded' his gospel-that is, he announced it before he argued for it. This tells us something about the nature of Jesus' gospel. It is the announcement of a coming event, and hence must first be preached before discussion is entered into. - Peter Jensen

Exes who stay friends as part of one big, happy family. Broken-up parents who don’t fight. The movie “Mrs. Doubtfire.”

Today we take for granted the values of equality, compassion, consent, enlightenment, science, freedom, and progress.

But as @glenscrivener insightfully point out: without the influence of Christianity, would we?

Reporter: Why so close?
MJ: Most of us are almost 60 now.

The population of NSW is 8.166 million. Poker machine losses were AT LEAST $8 bullion in 2022. That’s around $1000 for every resident of our state. Again, just losses on poker machines. The time for reform that will #putpokiesintheirplace is NOW!

#Christianity is good news. It begins with a God of light, life and love...

The apostle Paul entered heaven to the cheers of those he martyred. That’s how the Gospel works.
