We assume that our race simply deserves heaven; that God owes heaven to us unless we do something really bad to warrant otherwise.

To everyone wanting a safe, untroubled, comfortable life free from danger, stay away from Jesus. The danger in our lives will always increase in proportion to the depth of our relationship with Christ.

I always questioned if I was CALLED to adopt, but then I realized no child was ever CALLED to be an orphan.

The price is certainly high for people who don’t know Christ and who live in a world where Christians shrink back from self-denying faith and settle into self-indulging faith. While Christians choose to spend their lives fulfilling the American dream instead of giving their lives to proclaiming the kingdom of God, literally billions in need of the Gospel remain in the dark

Good intentions, regular worship, Bible study, do not prevent blindness. Part of our sinful nature instinctively chooses to see what we want to see and to ignore what we want to ignore.

As Christ begins to live in us, everything begins to change about us.

Jesus is no longer one to be accepted or invited in but one who is infinitely worthy of our immediate and total surrender.
