When it comes to my salvation, all I need is Jesus; after my salvation, everything is Jesus plus the church... When people preach that all you need is Jesus, they cut you and I off from one of the greatest sources of healing, which is the body of Christ. Dont go it alone - you wont make it.

Where I once believed people were there to be used, I started thinking of other people first.

We've had a major shift in what truth is and where it comes from. We've gone from being God-centered to self-centered, from being objective to being subjective and from being internal to external.

Having convictions can be defined as being so thoroughly convinced that Christ and His Word are both objectively true and relationally meaningful that you act on your beliefs regardless of the consequences.

Where I once constantly lost my temper, I found myself arriving at a crisis and experiencing peace.

It is more rewarding to resolve a conflict than to dissolve a relationship.

Well how can a holy, just, righteous God allow sin into His presence?
