Best 19 quotes of Reid A. Ashbaucher on MyQuotes

Attitude is a state of mind that results in an action taken or an emotion displayed. Attitude, in the end, is a motivator or that which generates or reflects motives.

Faith is then a choice we make, making faith an attitude that leads to action.

For biblical truth to be true, it must agree with all other biblical truth.

For one to define and understand the nature of the universe, one must first understand the nature of the force behind its existence.

God structures his authority based on how he operates internally—that is, how each member of the trinity sees and interacts with each other. God never asks us to function in our obedience outside his personal examples.

Good teaching gains its authority from having consistent and repeated support from multiple scriptural sources, and it builds a firm base for our unity and our confidence in Christ.

In reality, mankind is still metaphysically in God’s likeness, but God’s image in mankind has been altered by sin. We can no longer duplicate or reflect God’s attitudes as we once could do. That is, we can no longer be holy as God is holy. Our morality has been altered and no longer has the capability to duplicate or reflect God’s image. So what is the answer? Can this image be repaired or made whole again? The answer is, YES!

It has always been my belief that if you don’t ask the right questions, you won’t get the right answers.

Morality is totally God’s standard, and his standards and conditions are revealed to us through his written word, the Scriptures (The Bible).

Remember, morality is God’s standard, not humankind’s standard. So it is important that we understand the process that God used to bring us his wisdom, truth and historical perspective.

The covenants are thus fulfilled through the teamwork of the whole Trinity; otherwise the Gospel is dead and ineffective - as the Apostle Paul explains in First Corinthians 15:12-17:

The moral of the story is, faith does not always bring you happiness, wealth or a comfortable lifestyle filled with fun things to do. What faith does bring us is hope while living out God's attitudes of: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control, all for the glory of God and the establishment of his kingdom.

The nice thing about Christianity is that its history and origins are abundantly clear and well documented. It is within this history we learn about the true God of the universe and his proclamation about himself to the world. If you learn nothing else within this book, I hope you will walk away with this one single truth: God is not a religion, but a personal being, who has revealed himself to his creation from the beginning.

The purpose of my faith is to bring me hope without fear. This is not only beneficial for the life to come, but also in this present life as well.

To live without faith is to live without hope.

To understand an issue or someone’s argument about anything, one needs to understand the very nature of the issue, which is the foundational question concerning anything.

To understand Christianity, you must understand what the Old Testament reveals to us; for Christianity is a by-product of the covenant God made with Abraham – around 2,000 B.C. – through which Judaism and then Christianity were born.

When we talk about a dispensational theological system, we should understand this to mean the harmonization of biblical principles and events that are not isolated but seen as a collection of truths working together towards a single common goal that God has established for his glory. The system itself represents a tool that organizes these truths into a coherent systematic structural approach to the Scriptures, that can then be used to aid in better understanding God’s revealed revelation concerning his eschatological plans.

Wisdom plus knowledge equals understanding.
