The task of the teacher of the Bible is to open up what’s closed, to make plain what is obscure, to unravel what is knotted and to unfold what is tightly packed.

The only true conqueror who shall be crowned in the end is he who continues until war's trumpet is blown no more.... Christian, wear your shield close to your armor and cry earnestly to God, that by His Spirit you may endure to the end.

The fact that we have to discuss reality as though there were no reality is an indication of the confusion of our times.

Father, help us to rest our heads on the soft pillow of Your providence.

The providence of God does not relieve us of our human responsibility: it doesn't call for inactivity, it calls for activity.

Even the most casual events are connected to God's purpose for His people from all eternity.

Father, look upon us in Your goodness and kindness, we pray as a church. Help us to love each other.
