It is amazing how much light the Bible shines on commentaries

If you leave the church service thinking about how good the pastor was, he has missed the mark. If you leave consumed with Christ, the pastor has been used by the Lord.

If you cannot be accused of exclusivity, you are not discipling.

There was no identity crisis in the life of Jesus Christ. He knew who He was. He knew where He had come from, and why he was here. And he knew where He was going. And when you are that liberated, then you can serve.

Some people expect the door of opportunity to be opened with an electric eye.

So the first reason for studying Scripture is that it is a means of spiritual growth. There is none apart from the Word. It is God's primary tool to develop you as an individual.

God is not looking for more stars; He's looking for more servants.
