Jerry Bridges Quote: “No circumstance is so big that He cannot control it.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “It is our response to our circumstances rather than the degree of difficulty that determines whether or not we are discontent.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Only when we’re thoroughly convinced that the Christian life is entirely of grace are we able to serve God out of a grateful and loving heart.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “We must pray constantly for His enabling grace to say no to temptation, of choosing to take all practical steps to avoid known areas of temptation and flee from those that surprise us.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Our very worst days are never beyond the reach of God’s grace.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “God makes provision for our holiness, but He gives us the responsibility of using those provisions.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “True joy comes only from God and He shares this joy with those who walk in fellowship with Him.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Evil Rulers Are Never Beyond The Bounds of God’s Sovereign Will.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Holiness is nothing less than conformity to the character of God.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Faith enables us to obey when obedience is costly or seems unreasonable to the natural mind.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “It is just as important to trust God as it is to obey Him. When we disobey God we defy His authority and despise His holiness. But when we fail to trust God we doubt His sovereignty and question His goodness.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “We are 100 percent responsible for the pursuit of holiness, but at the same time we are 100 percent dependent upon the Holy Spirit to enable us in that pursuit. The pursuit of holiness is not a pull-yourself-up-by-your-own-bootstraps approach to the Christian life.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Patience is the ability to suffer a long time under the mistreatment of others without growing resentful or bitter.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Complaining about the weather seems to be a favorite American pastime. Sadly, we Christians often get caught up in this ungodly habit in our society. But when we complain about the weather, we are actually complaining against God who sent us our weather. We are, in fact, sinning against God.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “When God saves us through Christ, He not only saves us from the penalty of sin, but also from its dominion.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “We need to call sin what the Bible calls it and not soften it with modern expressions borrowed from our culture.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Worship is the specific act of ascribing to God the glory, majesty, honor, and worthiness which are His.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “We must not allow our emotions to hold sway over our minds. Rather, we must seek to let the truth of God rule our minds. Our emotions must become subservient to the truth.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “As we grow in the knowledge of God’s holiness, even though we are growing in the practice of holiness, it seems the gap between our knowledge and our practice always gets wider. This is the Holy Spirit’s way of drawing us to more and more holiness.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Sin is wrong, not because of what it does to me, or my spouse, or child, or neighbor, but because it is an act of rebellion against the infinitely holy and majestic God.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “No detail of your life is too insignificant for your heavenly Father’s attention.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “This is the secret of being content: To learn and accept that we live daily by God’s unmerited favor given through Christ, and that we can respond to any and every situation by His divine enablement through the Holy Spirit.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “The opposite of retaliation is to entrust ourselves to God, who judges justly.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “God in His infinite wisdom knows exactly what adversity we need to grow more and more into the likeness of His Son. He not only knows what we need but when we need it and how best to bring it to pass in our lives. He is the perfect teacher or coach. His discipline is always exactly suited for our needs. He never over trains us by allowing too much adversity in our lives.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Uncontrolled temper is soon dissipated on others. Resentment, bitterness, and self-pity build up inside our hearts and eat away at our spiritual lives like a slowly spreading cancer.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “As we search the Scriptures, we must allow them to search us, to sit in judgment upon our character and conduct.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “We all want Grace, but we cannot enjoy Grace when there is an attitude of comparing.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “We believers do need to be challenged to a life of committed discipleship, but that challenge needs to be based on the gospel, not on duty or guilt. Duty or guilt may motivate us for awhile, but only a sense of Christ’s love for us will motivate us for a lifetime.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “God does not delight in our sufferings. He brings only that which is necessary, but He does not shrink from that which will help us grow.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Our duty is found in the revealed will of God in the Scriptures. Our trust must be in the sovereign will of God as He works in the ordinary circumstances of our daily lives for our good and His glory.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Solo en la medida en que podemos ver la santidad de Dios, Su absoluta pureza y Su aborrecimiento moral para con el pecado, podemos comprender lo tremendo que es pecar contra un Dios santo.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “God is worthy of my loving obedience because of who He is, not because of what he does.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Biblical community, then, incorporates this idea of an active partnership in the promotion of the gospel and the building up of believers.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “The daily experience of Christ’s love is linked to our obedience to Him. It is not that His love is conditioned on our obedience. That would be legalism. But our experience of His love is dependent upon our obedience.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “We obey God’s Law, not to be loved but because we are loved in Christ.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “God intends that everyone who has embraced the gospel become a part of the great enterprise of spreading the gospel.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Our sins are forgiven and we are accepted as righteous by God because of both the sinless life and sin-bearing death of our Lord Jesus Christ. There is no greater motivation for dealing with sin in our lives than the realization of these two glorious truths of the gospel.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “And the God who ruled absolutely in the life and fortunes of the most powerful monarch of that time still rules in the fortunes and destinies of governments today. No government or dictator is so powerful as to be beyond the sway of His sovereign rule over all the nations of the earth. GOD.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “God never pursues His glory at the expense of the good of His people, nor does He ever seek our good t the expense of His glory. He has designed His eternal purpose so that His glory and our good are inextricably bound together. What comfort and encouragement this should be to us.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “God does not require a perfect, sinless life to have fellowship with Him, but He does require that we be serious about holiness, that we grieve over sin in our lives instead of justifying it, and that we earnestly pursue holiness as a way of life.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Every sin we commit reinforces the habit of sinning and makes it easier to sin. In the previous chapter we discussed the importance of guarding our minds and emotions, since these faculties are the channels through which the various compelling forces reach our wills. But it is also important that we understand how our habits influence our wills.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “We need to cultivate in our own hearts the same hatred of sin God has. Hatred of sin as sin, not just as something disquieting or defeating to ourselves, but as displeasing to God, lies at the root of all true holiness.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Gentleness is an active trait, describing the manner in which we should treat others. Meekness is a passive trait, describing the proper Christian response when others mistreat us.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “We might say God’s wrath is His justice in action, rendering to everyone his just due, which, because of our sin is always judgment.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Every day is important for us because it is a day ordained by God. If we are bored with life there is something wrong with our concept of God and His involvement in our daily lives. Even the most dull and tedious days of our lives are ordained by God and ought to be used by us to glorify Him.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Fellowship is much, much more than food and fun and even more than reading and studying the Scriptures with another believer. Fellowship at times may involve blood, sweat, and tears as we stand side by side with our persecuted brothers and sisters.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “God wants us to walk in obedience – not victory. Obedience is oriented toward God; victory is oriented toward self.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “The realization that my daily relationship with God is based on the infinite merit of Christ instead of on my own performance is a very freeing and joyous experience. But it is not meant to be a one-time experience; the truth needs to be reaffirmed daily.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “The point of this good-day-bad-day comparison is this: Regardless of our performance, we are always dependent on God’s grace, His undeserved favor to those who deserve His wrath. Some days we may be more acutely conscious of our sinfulness and hence more aware of our need of His grace, but there is never a day when we can stand before Him on our own two feet of performance, when we are worthy enough to deserve His blessing.”
Jerry Bridges Quote: “Sin is a spiritual and moral malignancy. Left unchecked, it can spread throughout our entire inner being and contaminate every area of our lives. Even worse, it often will “metastasize” from us into the lives of other believers around us.”
