“Free will was the greatest gift ever offered. God is not responsible for what we did with it. We are. - The Old Man And The Wasteland”

“God's salvation does not come in response to a changed life. A changed life comes in response to the salvation, offered as a free gift.”

“Perhaps the greatest gift an animal has to offer is a permanent reminder of who we really are.”

“Every time we turn to Christ in faith it is like a moment of Sabbath, a little foretaste of eternal rest and glory. The gift of that moment lies not in what we do but what we receive. It is the holy time set aside to receive the greatest gift of God ever has to give, which is himself, in his own beloved Son.”

“Whoever will be free must make himself free. Freedom is no fairy gift to fall into a man's lap. What is freedom? To have the will to be responsible for one's self.”

“Accountability is the natural product of agency and is the basis of the plan of life. We are responsible for our own actions and accountable to God for what we choose to do with our lives. Life is God’s gift to us, and what we do with it is our gift to him.”
