Notes and Quotes from Day Two of LS Retreat

He is God, therefore we believe in him, we don’t need to believe in him in order for him to be God.

The presence of God is what makes Christianity different from every other religion. We are made to desire being in the presence of God.

“The dwelling place of God will be among men in heaven.”

To some degree we are blind; God allows suffering for us to see the world the way it really is.

“Life is summed up in two words: ‘Thank you.’”

It is cowardly to hear the gospel, know the gospel and shrink back from living the gospel.”

Don’t shy away from hard work for fear of legalism. It is godly to work hard to be godly. It is easy to not want to work hard.

We won already; this victory should affect the way you play. The game is over. We won. Work hard. Be a conqueror. Thank God.
