It may be difficult to understand why a test comes our way, but we must never forget that the test is accomplishing refining and purification.

Sin then is not a toy with which to play but a terror to be shunned.

We never know when we too will be called into eternity. I doubt if even one of those people who got on those planes or walked into the World Trade Center or the Pentagon last Tuesday morning thought it would be the last day of their lives. They didn't - it didn't occur to them. And that's why each of us needs to face our own spiritual need and commit ourselves to God and his will now.

The Bible teaches that faith is the only approach that we have to God. No man has sins forgiven, no man goes to heaven, no man has assurance of peace and happiness, until he has faith in Jesus Christ.

The Christian should stand out like a sparkling diamond.

Anxiety is the natural result when our hopes are centered in anything short of God and His will.

The highest form of worship is the worship of unselfish Christian service.
