Attachments to older forms of worship may be comfortable, but they may contain elements of falsehood that make them unacceptable to God.

Nothing should be considered outside the scope of God's authority.

God's love does not depend on the current spiritual condition of those He loves.

While catastrophes do enter the lives of godly people, they attach themselves far more to people who reject Him.

The believer who feels the agony caused by rebellion will grow to become the best intercessor.

Many people find spiritual growth possible only when times are hard; prosperity tends to promote complacency.

Every demonstration of God's faithfulness to us is an opportunity for us to testify of Him to others.
