Sin is wrong, not because of what it does to me, or my spouse, or child, or neighbor, but because it is an act of rebellion against the infinitely holy and majestic God.

We might say God's wrath is His justice in action, rendering to everyone his just due, which, because of our sin is always judgment.

Obeying the revealed will of God and trusting Him for the results.

We're more concerned about our own "victory" over sin than we are about the fact that our sins grieve God's heart.

Thankfulness to God is a recognition that God in His goodness and faithfulness has provided for us and cared for us, both physically and spiritually. It is a recognition that we are totally dependent upon Him; that all that we are and have comes from God.

The gospel is not only the most important message in all of history; it is the only essential message in all of history.

The great antidote to anxiety is to come to God in prayer. We are to pray about everything. Nothing is too big for Him to handle, and nothing is too small to escape His attention.
