“Everybody eventually surrenders to something or someone. If not to God, you will surrender to the opinions or expectations of others, to money, to resentment, to fear, or to your own pride, lusts, or ego. You were designed to worship God — and if you fail to worship him, you will create other things (idols) to give your life to. You are free to choose what you surrender to, but you are not free from the consequences of that choice. E. Stanley Jones said, “If you don’t surrender to Christ, you surrender to chaos.”

“la meta final de todo estudio bíblico es su aplicación, no su interpretación. En vista de que Dios quiere cambiar nuestra vida por medio de su Palabra, es de suma importancia aprender a aplicar las Escrituras en nuestra vida antes de aprender cualquier otro método de estudio bíblico.”
