For Paul, doctrine is the basis of unity. Without the common doctrine they had been taught, the unity would not have been Christian unity. ~John Piper
Isolating false teachers—avoiding them—is Paul’s strategy for preserving unity that is based on true teaching (Romans 16:17–20 ) ~John Piper
Working alot for God doesn't mean you know God alot. If you know God you will work for God, not the other way round.
No one so bereft of genuine faith could possibly produce true good works (A bad tree cannot bear good fruit) ~ John MacArthur

Dr Martyn Lloyd Jones
"One of the greatest preachers of the 20th century was Martyn Lloyd Jones,pastor of westminster chapel, London for 29 years until his retirement in 1968. He died March 1, 1981, but his writing and preaching continue... I think preachers need to hear this kind of preaching as a partial antidote to the relentless trivializing of preaching in our day. ~John piper.
