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

Whatever keeps me from my Bible is my enemy, however harmless it may appear to be.

You have been forgiven, so act like it!

God does not love us because we are hard or easy to love, He loves us because He is God.

We go astray when we think that we can do spiritual work without spiritual power.

Anything that God has declared that we should be we can be.

People have faith in 'faith' and largely forget that our confidence is not in the power of faith but in the Person and work of the Savior, Jesus Christ.
