The idea of the divine-human friendship originated with God. Had not God said first 'Ye are my friends?' (John 15:14)

When the eyes of the soul looking out meet the eyes of God looking in, heaven has begun right here on earth.

We can afford to follow Him to failure. Faith dares to fail. The resurrection and the judgment will demonstrate before all worlds who won and who lost. We can wait.

Our gifts and talents should also be turned over to Him. They should be recognized for what they are, God's loan to us, and should never be considered in any sense our own

The KEY to disciplining ourselves in the area of obedience is always keeping in mind to whom we are being obedient.

Nowhere in the Word of God is there any text or passage or line that can be twisted or tortured into teaching that the organic living church of Jesus Christ just prior to His return will not have every right and every power and every obligation that she knew in that early part of the book of Acts.

Coming before God in quietness & waiting upon Him in silence often can accomplish more than days of feverish activity.
