When you follow Christ, it must be a total burning of all your bridges behind you.

What makes us Christians shrug our shoulders when we ought to be flexing our muscles? What makes us apathetic in a day when there are loads to lift, a world to be won and captives to be set free? Why are so many bored when the times demand action?

Embracing conflict can be a joy when we know that irritation and frustration can lead to growth and the re-engergizing of ourselves and others. Hot heads and cold hearts never solved anything.

God has not promised to bless my thoughts, but He has promised to bless His Word.

God undertook the most dramatic rescue operation in cosmic history. He determined to save the human race from self-destruction, and He sent His Son Jesus Christ to salvage and redeem them. The work of man's redemption was accomplished at the cross.

You not only choose between two ways of life but you choose between two masters.

I am convinced that people are open to the Christian message if it is seasoned with authority and proclaimed as God's own Word.
