Sound doctrine does not enter into the hard and disobedient heart; but, as if beaten back, enters anew into itself.

We used to hate and destroy one another and refused to associate with people of another race or country. Now, because of Christ, we live together with such people and pray for our enemies.

Sound doctrine does not enter into the hard and disobedient heart; but, as if beaten back, enters anew into itself.

But if so great a power is shown to have followed and to be still following the dispensation of His suffering, how great shall that be which shall follow His glorious advent! For He shall come on the clouds as the Son of man, so Daniel foretold, and His angels shall come with Him.

For I choose to follow not men or men's doctrines, but God and the doctrines [delivered] by Him. For if you have fallen in with some who are called Christians, but who do not admit this [truth], and venture to blaspheme the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob; who say there is no resurrection of the dead, and that their souls, when they die, are taken to heaven; do not imagine that they are Christians

No one who is rightly minded turns from true belief to false.

Let it be understood that those who are not found living as He taught are not Christian- even though they profess with the lips the teaching of Christ.
