"If you insist that no one can determine which beliefs are right and wrong, why should I believe what you are saying? The reality is that we all make truth-claims of some sort and it is very hard to weigh them responsibly, but we have no alternative but to try to do so. It is no more narrow to claim that one religion is right than to claim that one way to think about all religions (namely that all are equal) is right. We are all exclusive in our beliefs, but in different ways." —Timothy Keller

"The life he gives is nothing less than the indestructible life of the resurrection, the very life of the deathless God himself. Moreover, it is his gift here and now. Martha believes in some such life at the distant horizon of history when the Messiah eventually appears. Jesus invites her to reshape her hope radically." —Bruce Milne

"Jesus is God incarnate, the Good Shepherd. By his death and resurrection, he not only claims us for himself, but actually unites us to himself. We're not called to follow a mere man whose authority and ways will be detrimental to us, but we are called to follow the Good Shepherd who defends us and secures for us eternal life." —John Pennylegion

"There is but one door to a fold, and sheep and shepherds alike must enter by this door. There is no other way for them. But Jesus does provide the way." —Leon Morris

"Jesus is the light of the world; the light of the world is Jesus. He himself in person is that light. He—no one else beside him—is that light, for it is only in and through him that God's glorious attributes shine forth most brilliantly in the midst of the world." —William Hendriksen

"By offering himself as bread, Jesus declares that he is the satisfier of our spiritual, emotional, and rational cravings." —John Pennylegion

The message from our Ash Wednesday service.

"No one could tell that Jesus was God just by looking at him. It's just the same today; no one can conclude that Jesus is God using human sensory and reasoning capacity alone; it remains an article of faith. Yet this faith is not a stab in the dark." —Harold L. Senkbeil
