If you are worried more about your image than about helping someone grow, it is time to reevaluate your leadership priorities. @JenniCatron https://t.co/bhyCDtER13 via @cnieuwhof

“This commandment we have from him: whoever loves God *must* also love his brother.” 1 John 4:21

There is no “must” in the original: ὁ ἀγαπῶν τὸν θεὸν ἀγαπᾷ καὶ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ.

If you love God, you will love the brother. The command: be that!

“You must keep all earthly treasures out of your heart. Let Christ be your treasure, let him have your heart.” —Charles Spurgeon

"A lifestyle of dependence upon God in prayer guards our hearts from temptation and keeps us spiritually alert rather than lying in slumber, vulnerable to sin’s allure." —Paul Tautges

[Dr. Eric Mason @pastoremase]

• Shepherding
• The ministry of prayer
• Evangelism
• Faithful Bible teaching
• Healthy community

you know the old stuff

“Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps.” 1 Peter 2:21

In one glorious act Christ was our inimitable substitute, and our imitable sacrifice.

[Paul David Tripp @PaulTripp]

Don’t let yourself be quicker to point out the sin, weakness or failure in someone else than you are to confess the presence of the same in you.

[Tim Keller Wisdom @DailyKeller]

Don’t work on your image; work on your heart before God, or your true self will be exposed in the assembly.

[Paul David Tripp @PaulTripp]

Many of our idols are good things that have become dangerous things because they have become ruling things.

[Matt Smethurst @MattSmethurst]

My husband’s three rules of engagement when we go to church:

1. An alone person in our gathering is an emergency.

2. Friends can wait.

3. Introduce a newcomer to someone else.

"This day I will begin to put the dread and fear of you on the people who are under the whole heaven…" (Deuteronomy 2:25)

O God, please help us to realize that if You are for us and with us, we have nothing to fear in this world. #praytheword

Teamwork is a constant balancing act between self-interests and group-interests. Neither one is wrong unless they get imbalanced.

[Paul David Tripp @PaulTripp]

If the smallest sin is not serious, then grace is not necessary.

Your most powerful wealth building tool is your income.

Don't surrender it to debt.

Debt is acid that eats your wealth.

Child of God,” trumps any identity you could ever seek or assign to yourself.

[Tim Keller Wisdom @DailyKeller]

Self-sufficiency, self-centeredness, self-salvation make us hard toward people we think of as failures and losers, and ironically makes us endlessly self-hating if we don’t live up to our standards.

[Tim Keller Wisdom @DailyKeller]

If you can do nothing else, you can always glorify God by having a trusting attitude toward him as you suffer, rather than becoming bitter. And the best way to do that is to look at God the Son suffering infinitely for you. That will help you trust him as you suffer.

[Dave Ramsey @DaveRamsey]

Your money is FINITE. To win, you must live on less than you make — a concept Congress can't grasp.

You will not have to fight this battle. Take up your positions; stand firm and see the deliverance the Lord will give you, Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Go out to face them tomorrow, and the Lord will be with you. (2 Chronicles 20:17)

[John Piper @JohnPiper]

“The one who endures to the end will be saved.” Matthew 10:22

Such warnings are the means by which God enacts the certainty of his people’s perseverance.

“I give them eternal life, and they will never perish.” John 10:28
