1. The good news is that with our God there is always more: more than we deserve, dare, ask, or expect, more than we can see, hear, feel, or think.
  2. The reason that God’s commandments are not burdensome is that Jesus has fulfilled them.
  3. Both now and forever, the bruised and crucified Lord nailed to a cross is our assurance of deliverance.
  4. The love mentioned in 1 John 4:15-21 fourteen times (!) is a love that needs no apology but is determined at all times to sacrifice for the other.
  5. Logos theology is a theology of presence without division. It is a way of unification, of which the incarnation is the greatest visible example.
  6. We can appreciate what we have received from God, we can receive it all as free gift, but only when we stop investing in fool's gold.
  7. To say that whoever loves has been born of God is also to say that those who are born of God are recipients of love. They do not have God because they love but because they are loved.
  8. We need to hear the gospel because it is good news that is not from you, or about you, or because of you.
  9. When we cry to the Lord in our trouble, he will send us a preacher with words that deliver us from destruction.
