1. Help comes for those who cannot help themselves. When we bottom-out and come to the end of ourselves, that is where hope springs.
  2. You are the friend in low places. It’s only from this place that you are free to look outside yourself for the remedy to the issues that plague you and humanity.
  3. If a key part of the Reformation was placing God’s Word back into the hands of the people in a clear, understandable way, then John of Ragusa can be called a “Prometheus” in his own right.
  4. When the Reformers read the Bible (especially when studied in the original languages), they found a God who was gracious and merciful for the sake of Christ.
  5. Both now and forever, the bruised and crucified Lord nailed to a cross is our assurance of deliverance.
  6. Every day is a Sabbath for Christians. Every day is the day the Lord has made. Every day is a day to find rest in Christ.
  7. Righteousness before God is possessed only by grace and that through the currency of faith.
  8. Logos theology is a theology of presence without division. It is a way of unification, of which the incarnation is the greatest visible example.
  9. Sometimes in hanging on to our useless guilt, we are idolaters. We believe our sin or conscience is more powerful than our God.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
