As God's children, we are not to be observers; we're to participate actively in the Lord's work. Spectators sit and watch, but we are called to use our spiritual gifts and serve continually.

When we learn from experience, the scars of sin can lead us to restoration and a renewed intimacy with God.

Jesus is our Advocate before God.

No one enjoys feeling weak, whether it is emotionally, spiritually or physically. There is something within the human spirit that wants to resist the thought of weakness. Many times this is nothing more than our human pride at work. Just as weakness carries a great potential for strength, pride carries an equally great potential for defeat.

The task of the Church after Jesus' resurrection and ascension was to proclaim the forgiveness of sins to all nations.

God wants us to seek Him more than anything else, even more than we seek answers to prayer. When we come to God in prayer, sometimes our hearts are so full of what we want that we leave God out. Our minds become consumed with the gift rather than the giver.

A Christian has no right being in a fight unless it's a spiritual fight.
