One does not structure the church to meet the felt needs and desires of the tares. The purpose of corporate assembly, which has its roots in the Old Testament, is for the people of God to come together corporately to offer their sacrifices of praise and worship to God. So the first rule of worship is that it be designed for believers to worship God in a way that pleases God.

Without God upholding the universe from moment to moment, nothing could continue to be.

Every sin is an act of cosmic treason, a futile attempt to dethrone God in His sovereign authority.

If God says, 'I forgive you,' you are forgiven no matter how you feel, and to refuse that forgiveness is an act of arrogance.

The promises of God for tomorrow are the anchor for believers today.

If there is one maverick molecule in all the universe, then God is not sovereign. And if God is not sovereign, He is not God.

It is one thing to fall victim to the flood or to fall prey to cancer; it is another thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
