"Faith isn't about knowing all the right stuff or obeying a list of rules. It's something more, something more costly because it involves being present and making a sacrifice. Perhaps that's why Jesus is sometimes called Immanuel, 'God with us'. I think that's what God had in mind for us when it comes to other people". -Bob Goff, Love Does
Being a Christian is not about following a list of rules, but by being overcome with love. -Anon
When the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples, "Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?"
On hearing this, Jesus said, "It is not the healthy that need a doctor, but the sick. But go and learn what this means: I desire mercy not sacrifice. For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.
Matthew 9:11-13
We don't live to put hands and feet on love. When love is a theory it's safe, it's free of risk. But love in the brain changes nothing...love is too beautiful a concept to keep locked up behind a forehead like a prisoner. -Donald Miller
