Future Grace reflections from Intro #1

We shall bring our Lord most glory if we get from Him much Grace - Charles Spurgeon

Prizing is the authenticating essence of Praising - John Piper

Sin is what we do when our hearts are not satisfied with God - John Piper

Behind most wrong living is wrong thinking.

Could it be that gratitude for bygone grace has been pressed to serve as the power for holiness, which only faith in future grace was designed to perform?

The essence of faith is the deep satisfaction with all that God promises to be for us in Jesus, beginning now.

Thomas Chalmers' aim was to displace from the human heart its love for the world by setting forth another object, even God, as more worthy of its attachment.

John Piper's aim is to emancipate human hearts from servitude to the fleeting pleasures of sin.
