Jesus said "You must be born again." He didn't say "You must know when it happened."
The week does not begin today with u & yr work. It started y'day w Christ & His grace. B4 u take a step ur on top of the world #EnjoyYourDay
The bad news: You don't have what it takes. The good news: You have everything He gives. #EnjoyYourDay
#ChristmasMeans God didn't send a manual, He sent Immanuel
Other religious figures "comment on your status." #ChristmasMeans Jesus shared your status.
Whatever distance we've put between ourselves & God, Jesus bridges it. If we belong to Christ, we're in the Father's embrace. #EnjoyYourDay
Today we filmed the opening scenes of "O Christmas Tree". Conifers Were Harmed in the making of this video pic.twitter.com/nL9aY9TWb8

"I am among u as one who serves" "He emptied Himself" "For yr sake He became poor" "The Son of God loved me&gave Himself 4me" #EnjoyYourDay
God does not grant you a tentative pardon. In Jesus He gives you Himself, for free and forever. #EnjoyYourDay
So much "teaching" on the Trinity assumes that it's a separate and difficult subject rather than the basic structure of Christian faith.
A lot of Christians - while "teaching" the Trinity - talk believers *out* of their confidence in knowing God. It's desperately sad.
NB: If ur explaining Trinity, ur just giving believers a vocabulary 4what they already know. They know the Father thru the Son by the Spirit
It should be: "U KNOW the Fatherhood of God, the mediation of Jesus, the filling of the Spirit. UR already profoundly shaped by this truth"
The world thinks it wants a renovated Adam - we preach a crucified Christ. Lesson: Don't give people what they want. pic.twitter.com/8rE88y6ozH

Evangelism is pastoring the unconverted. Pastoral care is evangelising the converted.
What's your 'special possession': the thing u'd run into a burning building to rescue? For the Lord, it's YOU (1Pet2:9;3:18) #EnjoyYourDay
The Pharisee says "I am better than the unbeliever but their lot on earth is better than mine." The Christian says the exact opposite.
I see Pharisaical evangelism everywhere: Christians making out that they are superior but the Christian life they're offering is inferior.
He turned away any who came to Him full, but to all who came empty Jesus gave grace upon grace. He hasn't changed. #EnjoyYourDay

Suddenly I thought: add vent! Advent Calendars: Wait Watches I'm not saying John Williams is a drug addict, just that he's always making arrangements to score.
