Timothy Keller

God relentlessly offers his grace to people who do not deserve it, or seek it, or even appreciate it after they have been saved by it.

If our identity is in our work, rather than Christ, success will go to our heads, and failure will go to our hearts.

When love of one’s people becomes an absolute, it turns into racism. When love of equality turns into a supreme thing, it can result in hatred and violence toward anyone who has led a privileged life. It is the settled tendency of human societies to turn good political causes into counterfeit gods.
TIMOTHY KELLER

Absolute Good Hatred Love People People Become Political Racism Society Tendency Turn
This is the humbling truth that lies at the heart of Christianity. We love to be our own saviors. Our hearts love to manufacture glory for themselves.
