Ann Voskamp Quotes

Jesus gives his life for the congregation, not the other way around.

For God so loved the World that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

In contrast, Christianity, while acknowledging the presence of suffering, declares that life can be infinitely worth living and opens the way to eternal life in fellowship with God Who so loved the world that He gave Himself in Christ.

Christ died for the truth.

Jesus means life to me. Jesus is our savior. When I think about Jesus, I think about the sacrifice He made so that we may have eternal life. I can certainly tell you I'm not afraid to die, and I certainly have a peace about my life.

I've got Jesus in my heart. I'm glad to be alive.

Never forget what Jesus did for you. Never take lightly what it cost Him. And never assume that if it cost Him His very life, that it won't also cost you yours.

The Saviour would have passed through the agony of Calvary that one might be saved in His kingdom. He will never abandon one for whom He has died.

There's no way to get around the fact that Jesus is the only way to Heaven, and He is so good that He exchanged His place in Heaven to come suffer on a cross for humanity and rose to set us free from eternal life in Hell.

At the cross God wrapped his heart in flesh and blood and let it be nailed to the cross for our redemption.

When love becomes what Christianity is all about, we can make no sense of Jesus's death and resurrection.

Christ died for me and you, and we embrace that or we don't.

Anything so precious as the gospel of Jesus Christ is worthy of all the effort and sacrifice of time and means employed to teach it.

If the goal of an actor is to tell the best story ever, there's no higher story than Jesus Christ.

I would rather die and come to Jesus Christ than be king over the entire earth. Him I seek who died for us; Him I love who rose again because of us.

To Jesus Christ I commend my soul; Lord Jesus, receive my soul.

I can't help but tell people of the greatest story ever told - God's love and our eternal life.

As a Christian, Christ died so that we will have eternal life in Him in Heaven. What it looks like doesn't matter, what it smells like doesn't matter, as long as Christ is there it will be Heaven to me.

I remember thinking, That's what I need - and that hope was in Jesus Christ.

I believe that his death and resurrection transformed humanity's relationship with God.

Jesus' sinless life was given as a gift to the world - the ultimate gift. Some would receive Him, and others wouldn't. Nonetheless, He continues to be our gift, and His life and death makes it possible for His children to receive eternal life with Him. That's a reason to give God glory.

I marvel to think that the Son of God would condescend to save us, as imperfect, impure, mistake-prone, and ungrateful as we often are. I have tried to understand the Savior's Atonement with my finite mind, and the only explanation I can come up with is this: God loves us deeply, perfectly, and everlastingly.

So finally I came up with a thing that felt really pure, and I'm Christian, so when I hear about death I have a lot of hope because I believe in Jesus and life after death, and John 3:16.

Jesus died for somebody's sins but not mine.

Life is only a long and bitter suicide, and faith alone can transform this suicide into a sacrifice.
