“There’s no resolution to the conflicts of our lives within ourselves, no freedom from wickedness to be sought in striving, no peace with God which is the fruit of moral effort. And the reason why there is none is that we are, indeed, defeated by sin. It’s not that we’re occasionally overcome, or even that more often than not we lose the battle with ourselves. It’s that we’re wholly defeated, ruined, “there is no health in us.” To look to ourselves, therefore, to try to sort ourselves out by doing an audit of our moral lives or a clean-up operation on our spirituality is, quite literally, a hopeless undertaking.”

“Our believing has no power of itself; we certainly aren’t saved by belief. We’re saved by the grace and goodness and majesty of him in whom we believe—by the one whom we confess as we believe. In a real sense, our belief is nothing in and of itself. It’s simply a looking to him, a listening to him, in which we are wholly absorbed by that which we see and hear.”

Belief Confronted By Grace

Author:John Webster

“…The heart of the matter, the heart of the Christian message, is constituted by a fearful question and a merciful answer: What must I do to be saved? Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you shall be saved.”

Confronted By Grace

Author:John Webster

“Sin is misery, because it’s the perversion of our natures away from God. Sin deforms human life, which always leads to suffering. We cannot hope to despise God and his ways and remain authentically human—yet the singular history of the human race is that we do just that: break loose from God, tear up our roots in his life-giving presence, and then wonder why it hurts. Sin ruins us; and in ruining us it makes us guilty. It makes us feel guilty because we are guilty, our lives characterized by iniquity and lawlessness.”

Confronted By Grace

Author:John Webster

“We desperately need pardon. We need to have the past erased. We need, somehow, to have sin dealt with so that it no longer controls us and makes the present the slave of the past.”

Confronted By Grace

Author:John Webster

“The might of God isn’t infinite energy which could break out anywhere and do anything; it’s not a shapeless force. God’s might is God’s might, the infinite resourcefulness of the God of grace.”

“When we hear prophecy, we may not and must not treat it with cool detachment; prophecy isn’t a matter for our appraisal but for our attention.”
