self-esteem heaven delight
Satan delights to have us put ourselves down. Self-contempt is of Satan. There is no such thing in heaven.
faith faithful one-day
One day the faithful will have it all!
lasts doctrine devotion
The doctrine of foreordination is not a doctrine of repose; instead, it is a doctrine for second- and third-milers, and it will draw out of them the last full measure of devotion. It is a doctrine for the deep believer but it will bring only scorn from the skeptic.
being-there lord careless
Even the good can become careless without the Lord's being there to chasten.
leader challenges excellence
The unwillingness of most leaders to set standards, to administer feedback when standards are not met, to praise clearly when standards are met, stands in the way of the development of excellence. The leader who makes no demands of his disciples cannot really lead them at all. The sense of new excitement and new challenge generated by the gospel will be blunted by leaders who shield followers from the full demands of fellowship.
agony empathy divinity
Empathy during agony is a portion of divinity.
people sometimes worst
Sometimes the best people... have the worst experiences... because they are ready to learn
perspective temptation world
So much depends, therefore, upon our maintaining gospel perspective in the midst of ordinariness, the pressures of temptation, tribulation, deprivation, and the cares of the world.
imperfection needs release
The imperfections of others never release us from the need to work on our own shortcomings.
silence would-be obedience
If we knew how often the obedience of others is affected by our own, and how often our stepping forth soon brings forth a whole platton of helpers, and how often our speaking forth soon creates a chorus - we would be even more ashamed of our slackess and our silence.
It's service, not status, that counts.
moral-fiber people political
Our inspired Constitution is wisely designed to protect from excesses of political power, but it can do little to protect us from the excesses of appetite or from individual indifference to great principles or institutions. Any significant unraveling of the moral fiber of the American people, therefore, finally imperils the Constitution.
crowds
Crowds cannot make right what God has declared to be wrong.
christ draws
We cannot lead or draw others to Christ unless we stand closer to Him than they do.
