It should not be surprising if people believe easily in a God who makes no demands, but this is not the God of the Bible. Satan has cleverly misled people by whispering that they can believe in Jesus Christ without being changed, but this is the Devil's lie. To those who say you can have Christ without giving anything up, Satan is deceiving you.

Faith implies four things: self-renunciation, reliance with utter confidence on Christ, obedience, and a changed life.

There are three of you. There is the person you think you are. There is the person others think you are. There is the person God knows you are and can be through Christ.

Suffering is part of the human condition, and it comes to us all. The key is how we react to it, either turning away from God in anger and bitterness or growing closer to Him in trust and confidence.

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?

I don't need a successor, only willing hands to accept the torch for a new generation.

The end of the world begins the moment you die.
