Quotes by Robert Godfrey

Faith is the way in which I can look away from myself – both from my sin and my progress in sanctification – and look to Christ as my only hope.
Robert Godfrey

As Christians we insist that we must talk about sin if we are to be truthful about the human condition. If we do not understand our sin, we will not understand the kind of Savior we need.
Robert Godfrey

The Reformation doctrine of justification helps us to see that our salvation is the work of Christ for us. It also delivers us from a life of doubt and fear that causes us to wonder how God could possibly love sinners like us. It shows us that we have peace with God objectively because Christ has satisfied the demands of God for us, and it shows us subjectively because we can know confidently that by faith in Christ we are right with God.
Robert Godfrey
