If the presence of God is in the church, the church will draw the world in. If the presence of God is not in the church, the world will draw the church out.

A state of mind that sees God in everything is evidence of growth in grace and a thankful heart.

When the church finds its members falling into gross and scandalous sins, then it is time for the church to awake and cry to God for a Revival of Religion.

Understand now what lying is. Any species of designed deception. If the deception is not designed it is not lying. But if you design to make an impression contrary to the naked truth, you lie.
