It is the Holy Spirit's job to convict, God's job to judge and my job to love.
Christ alone can bring lasting peace - peace with God - peace among men and nations - and peace within our hearts.
Take your eyes and your ears and your hands and your feet and your thoughts and your heart: Give them completely to Christ
The family should be a closely knit group. The home should be a self-contained shelter of security; a kind of school where life's basic lessons are taught; and a kind of church where God is honored; a place where wholesome recreation and simple pleasures are enjoyed.
Remember: He WANTS your fellowship, and He has done everything possible to make it a reality. He has forgiven your sins, at the cost of His own dear Son. He has given you His Word, and the priceless privilege of prayer and worship.
"Salvation is always "good news." It is news of God's love and forgiveness-adoption into His family- fellowship with His people-freedom from the penalty of sin- liberation from the power of sin."
It should not be surprising if people believe easily in a God who makes no demands, but this is not the God of the Bible.

America is said to have the highest per capita boredom of any spot on earth! We know that because we have the greatest number of artificial amusements of any country. People have become so empty that they can't even entertain themselves. They have to pay other people to amuse them, to make then laugh, to try to make them feel warm and happy and comfortable for a few minutes, to try to lose that awful, frightening, hollow feeling-that terrible, dreaded feeling of being lost and alone.
Forgiveness does not come easily to us, especially when someone we have trusted betrays our trust. And yet if we do not learn to forgive, we will discover that we can never really rebuild trust.
There is no way of salvation except through the cross of Christ.
The entire plan for the future has its key in the resurrection.
True prayer is a way of life, not just for use in cases of emergency.
I believe one of the next great moves of God is going to be through the believers in the workplace.
If you want the perfect plan that God has for your life, you will have to go by way of Calvary to get it.
