Remember that we have to ask things of God that are in keeping with the God whom Jesus Christ revealed.

Our Lord’s teaching is always anti-self-realization. His purpose is not the development of a man; His purpose is to make a man exactly like Himself, and the characteristic of the Son of God is self-expenditure.

Worship is giving God the best that He has given you.

Beware of reasoning about God's Word - obey It.

Beware of the inclination to dictate to God what consequences you would allow as a condition of your obedience to Him.

Faith never knows where it is being led, it knows and loves the One Who is leading. Faith is not resignation to a power we do not know; faith is committal to One Whose character we do know because it has been revealed to us in Jesus Christ.

Adam was created to be the friend and companion of God, he was to have dominion over all the life in the air and earth and sea, but one thing he was not to have dominion over, and that was himself.
