"God has defeated Satan through the death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. Through this overwhelming victory, God has also empowered you to overcome any temptation to sin and has provided sufficient resources for you to respond to any problem of life. By relying on God's power, you can be an overcomer in any situation. ~ John C. Broger

“Many of us are missing something in life because we are after the second best.” - Eric Liddell

“It has been a wonderful experience to compete in the Olympic Games and to bring home a gold medal. But since I have been a young lad, I have had my eyes on a different prize. You see, each one of us is in a greater race than any I have run in Paris, and this race ends when God gives out the medals.” ~ Eric Liddell

“This much is certain, that we have no theological right to set any sort of limits to the loving-kindness of God which has appeared in Jesus Christ. Our theological duty is to see and understand it as being still greater than we had seen before.” -Karl Barth

“I don’t want a God that I understand. I have a God Whom I can trust where I can’t understand. He keeps much in the background so that “we walk by faith and not by sight.” So I won’t understand every last thing. If you would understand God perfectly, there would be no place for faith, and He wouldn’t be God.” - John Wright Follette

"After all, even though we all die, and we're all like water being spilled on the ground that cannot be recovered, nevertheless God doesn't take away life, but carries out his plans so as not to cast away permanently from him those who are presently estranged." -ISV

"We must learn to live on the heavenly side and look at things from above. To contemplate all things as God sees them, as Christ beholds them, overcomes sin, defies Satan, dissolves perplexities, lifts us above trials, separates us from the world and conquers fear of death." - A. B. Simpson
