The idea that this world is a playground instead of a battleground has now been accepted in practice by the vast majority of Christians.

In many churches Christianity has been watered down until the solution is so weak that if it were poison it would not hurt anyone, and if it were medicine it would not cure anyone!

We must meet the uncertainties of this world with the certainty of the world to come.

To square the records, however, it should be said that if the Calvinist does not rise as high, he usually stays up longer. He places more emphasis on the Holy Scriptures which never change, while his opposite number (as the newspapers say) tends to judge his spiritual condition by the state of his feelings, which change constantly. This may be the reason that so many Calvinistic churches remain orthodox for centuries, at least in doctrine, while many churches of the Arminian persuasion often go liberal in one generation.

What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.

God doesn't need anything nevertheless He wants worshipers.

In every generation the number of the righteous is small. Be sure you are among them.
