time jesus men
It is one of the ironies of the ministry that the very man who works in God's name is often hardest put to find time for God. The parents of Jesus lost Him at church, and they were not the last ones to lose Him there.
christian jesus differences
Jesus Christ demands more complete allegiance than any dictator who ever lived. The difference is, He has a right to it.
jesus men giving
Any man who takes Jesus Christ seriously becomes the target of the devil. Most church members do not give Satan enough trouble to arouse his opposition
christian jesus falling-in-love
A revival is the church falling in love with Jesus Christ all over again.
christian mother jesus
A picture of Christ was hung in the back of a pulpit. When the minister rose to speak one Sunday morning, a little boy asked his mother, 'Mother, who is that man who stands so we can't see Jesus?'
loyalty jesus husband
A wife who is 85 percent faithful to her husband is not faithful at all. There is no such thing as part-time loyalty to Jesus Christ.
spiritual jesus omnipotence
Jesus is all we have; he is all we need and all we want. We are shipwrecked on God and stranded on omnipotence!
christian jesus discipline
There are many who say they want to be victorious Christians, but few are willing to endure the discipline necessary to make one a good solider of Jesus Christ. There is a prize to possess, but before we possess it there is a price to be paid, and few will pay it.
christian jesus light
When we are weakest and most despondent, Jesus is most considerate. When there is a break in our progress or we have a spell of depression, he sees the whole of our lives and in the light of that He is longsuffering with discordant details.
christian jesus adventure
I can conceive of no greater, more romantic and interesting adventure than to undertake to live like Jesus in this complicated day.
christian wise jesus
God's deepest secrets often miss the wise and prudent and are revealed unto babes. We say, "Children, be like your parents." Jesus said, "Parents, be like your children."
jesus egypt want
It is a matter of whether one wants to get rich or be rich. We can be rich in Christ Jesus or perhaps get rich in Egypt, but we cannot do both.
jesus men champion
Make Jesus Christ your theme! I have seen preachers espouse causes and champion movements, and when the cause died and the movement collapsed, the preacher vanished too. But the man who glories in Christ never grows stale.
jesus want needed
It is one thing to say Jesus is all you want; until He is all you have and you discover He is all you ever needed.
