Noteworthy gospel-centered tweets from this last week:
- @paultripp: God’s sovereignty is the guarantee of his promises…you can only guarantee in places where you have complete control…
- @edstetzer: “Every Christian is either a missionary or an imposter.” ~Spurgeon.
- @timchaddick: “What we win with prayer, we wear with thankfulness” ~John Preston (Puritan Preacher)
- @burk_parsons: We are defined foremost not by what we do or don’t do but by who we are in Christ. What we do flows from who we are.
- @camijanephoto: When someone compliments your character, always point that person to Christ crucified. Give credit where credit is due.
- @lyssielulu: Do not treat God’s promises as something to be displayed in a museum but use them as everyday sources of comfort -Spurgeon
- @pastormark: Often, the distance between us and God is repentance.
- @pastorjdgreear: Judgmental self-righteousness: I’m good, ur bad. Non-judgmental self-righteousness: deep down, we’re both good. Gospel: we’re both bad, but God is good.
- @edstetzer: It’s OK to be frustrated w/ the church but don’t give up on her. We need a better bride, not a new mistress.
- @david_fairchild: The church is not a stage to showcase our gifts to one another. We exist as the church to showcase Christ to the world.
- @pastortullian: The Gospel is a pronouncement, not a program; it’s good news not good advice. It tells us what’s been done, not what we must do.
- @jonmcintosh: When falsely accused: Gospel yourself. Turn to the gospel. Make sure your identity is firmly rooted in Christ. Listen for the Spirit.
- @jonmcintosh: Jonathan Edwards’ marks of true conversion: Love 4 Christ, Hatred of Sin, Love 4 the Word, Love 4 truth, Love 4 believers.
- @edstetzer: The church needs to take into account both who she is (biblically) & where she is (culturally) while on mission
- @krafto: The mediocre teacher tells, the good teacher explains, the great teacher models
- @aaronsellars: Holiness isn’t a merit by which we attain communion with God but a gift of Christ enabling us to cling to him and follow him (Calvin).
- @darrinpatrick: Technique is a cruel counterfeit for the presence of God.
- @burk_parsons: Pastors and parishioners: What happens in pulpit and pew is foundational to move us out of pew and pulpit and onto mission.
- @david_fairchild: Preachers, it isn’t the man the makes the message but the message that makes the man. Let’s be men made by our messages first.
- @stimmis: Let’s pray for a movement of rampaging grace to sweep through the world. Be good if it started in the Church!
