I must be frank in my feeling that a notable heresy has come into being throughout our evangelical Christian circles -- the widely accepted concept that we humans can choose to accept Christ only because we need Him as Saviour and that we have the right to postpone our obedience to Him as Lord as long as we want to... The truth is that salvation apart from obedience is unknown in the sacred scripture... Apart from obedience, there can be no salvation, for salvation without obedience is a self-contradictory impossibility.

God often hides His blessing in trouble or trial, which makes it all the sweeter when it comes our way.

To fear and not be afraid- that is the paradox of faith.

Refuse to be average.

God loves us for ourselves. He values our love more than he values galaxies of new created worlds.

Thinking carries a moral imperative. The searcher for truth must be ready to obey truth without reservation or it will elude him.

This is the tragedy and woe of the hour--that we neglect the most important One who could possibly be in our midst--the Holy Spirit of God. Then, in order to make up for His absence, we have to do something to keep up our own spirits.
