Christian love draws no distinction between one enemy and another, except that the more bitter our enemy's hatred, the greater his need of love. Be his enmity political or religious, he has nothing to expect from a follower of Jesus but unqualified love. In such love there is not inner discord between the private person and official capacity. In both we are disciples of Christ, or we are not Christians at all.

In Jesus Christ we have been chosen from eternity, accepted in time, and united for eternity.

Possessions are not God's blessing and goodness, but the opportunities of service which he entrusts to us.

Do not try to make the Bible relevant. Its relevance is axiomatic.
