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.

God not only initiated my salvation, He not only sowed the seed, but He made sure that that seed germinated in my heart by regenerating me by the power of the Holy Ghost.

It is superstitious to equate our feelings and inclinations with the leading of the Holy Spirit.

We are able to persevere only because God works within us, within our free wills. And because God is at work in us, we are certain to persevere. The decrees of God concerning election are immutable. They do not change, because He does not change. All whom He justifies He glorifies. None of the elect has ever been lost.

Sometimes we behave and perform with our lives, not for God, but for an audience.

I don't always feel His presence. But God's promises do not depend upon my feelings; they rest upon His integrity.

Without the gospel, a gathering of people, though they claim otherwise, cannot be an authentic church.
