“Faith in Christ and a reliance on ourselves, even to the smallest degree, are mutually exclusive.”
Jerry Bridges, The Disciple of Grace: God's Role and Our Role in the Pursuit of Holiness, p. 50-51
These are various quotes that I have come across or read or heard that have impacted my life or inspired me in some way. Please note that I do not endorse or support everything that is quoted (as a few quotes are secular, or are missing context, or are just unsound biblically/theologically), but they all have provoked some thought or impacted me in some way! Hope you enjoy!
