When God writes our names in the 'Lamb's Book of Life' He doesn't do it with an eraser handy. He does it for eternity.

The Spirit always communicates that He's for you when He convicts you of your sin.

It's not the wickedness of the pagan that breaks my heart. It's the compromise of the Christian that grieves my soul.

I can’t make the Bible come alive for anyone. The Bible is already alive. It makes me come alive.

The Bible never tells us to take a blind leap of faith into the darkness and hope that there's somebody out there. The Bible calls us to jump out of the darkness and into the light. That is not a blind leap. The faith that the New Testament calls us to is a faith rooted and grounded in something that God makes clear is the truth.

A married person does not live in isolation. He or she has made a promise, a pledge, a vow, to another person. Until that vow is fulfilled and the promise is kept, the individual is in debt to his marriage partner. That is what he owes. 'You owe it to yourself' is not a valid excuse for breaking a marriage vow but a creed of selfishness.

The fundamental loss of a desire for God is the heart of original sin.
