Colossians 1:16 tells us that everything was created FOR God... don't we live instead as though God is created for US, to do OUR bidding, to bless US, and to take care of OUR loved ones?

Lukewarm people feel secure because they attend church, made a profession of faith at age twelve, were baptized, come from a Christian family, vote Republican, or live in America. Just as the prophets in the Old Testament warned Israel that they were not safe just because they lived in the land of Israel, so we are not safe just because we wear the label 'Christian' or because some people persist in calling us a 'Christian nation.

The point of your life is to point to Him. Whatever you are doing, God wants to be glorified, because this whole thing is His.

The world needs Christians who don't tolerate the complacency of their own lives.

He measures our lives by how we love.

As a culture, were so worried about whats going to happen to us 30 years from now that we are not taking care of our brothers and sisters who need help today.

God is so clear in spelling out His attributes in scripture in order that others would know what He is really like.
