The way of the Kingdom is the way of the cross, and those who would come into the Kingdom must pick up their cross and follow Jesus.

Because Jesus offers pure bread from heaven, we must accept it in faith and forsake the bread corrupted by the world's leaven.

We have no claim on the blessings, privileges, and promises of God, apart from Christ.

The outward works of man are incapable of purifying the heart. Only in Christ does one receive a clean heart that leads to true worship of God.

Jesus is Yahweh incarnate, the one who comes to deliver us in time of need.

A true disciple is one who knows Jesus, who is sent by Jesus, and who sacrifices like Jesus.

God’s agenda for us is to build our faith and dependence upon him.

Jesus Christ is God and Lord over the natural and the supernatural. He is Lord over all that he has created and therefore Jesus is completely in control. And since Jesus is completely in control we have nothing to fear but God alone.

There is a tension between the kingdom of Christ as a light that penetrates the darkness, and the mysterious work of the Holy Spirit in growing the kingdom of Christ.

The Kingdom of God–the King’s power overthe King’s people in the King’s place filled with the King’s presence–is like a mustard seed; it begins in seeming insignificance but results in something magnificent.

The secret of the kingdom is the Incarnate Word (who is Jesus Christ) and it can only be heard with the ears of faith.

Our duty before the living God is to teach our children about who God is and what he has done, and to establish the testimony of God in our homes.

There are two types of people: those who oppose Jesus who are part of the kingdom of Satan, and those who obey Jesus who are a part of his true family.

Jesus creates a new community of disciples, called by him, to be with him, to do like him.

Jesus is the Son of Man, the Lord of the Sabbath; the king of everlasting dominion in whose kingdom we find our ultimate Sabbath rest.

Being a true disciple of Jesus comes at an exceedingly high cost. But not following Him is infinitely higher and it will cost you eternity.

In Christ our starting point for knowledge and wisdom–for understanding the meaning of life–is God and his revelation. In Christ everything matters.

As you live face to face with God, you have hope.

As Christ has welcomed you, welcome one another for the glory of God.

Christians can be a confident and cheerful witnesses to the gospel by placing their hope in the perfect living hope that is in the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

As you faithfully bear witness to the truth of the gospel, take heart and be courageous for the Spirit of Christ is with you.

Speaking the truth in love will bring both repentance and reproach.

It is the joy of following Jesus, no matter what may come, that empowers a Christian to say, “let the will of the Lord be done.”

We are to follow Christ through Paul’s example of dying to ourselves and the things of this world and living for Christ and the inheritance of the kingdom that is coming. When we live this way, our lives will be an example for Christ’s glory to those around us.
