When God issues a call to us, it is always a holy call. The vocation of dying is a sacred vocation. To understand that is one of the most important lessons a Christian can ever learn. When the summons comes, we can respond in many ways. We can become angry, bitter or terrified. But if we see it as a call from God and not a threat from Satan, we are far more prepared to cope with its difficulties.

God is not blind; neither is He capricious. For Him there are no accidents. With God there are no cases of chance events.

In salvation we are not only saved from sin and damnation; we are saved unto holiness. The goal of redemption is holiness.

If you don't know you're in a state of grace, then you're vulnerable to the paralysis of the accusations of the enemy.

If Christ could make a complaint, it would be, "My bride never talks to me".

The gospel is the proclamation of the person and work of Jesus Christ and how those benefits can be applied to us by faith alone.

The rapture will not be secret but open and manifest. Its purpose will not be to whisk the elect away from the earth for a while until Christ returns for a 'second' Second Coming. The purpose of the rapture is to allow the saints to meet Jesus in the air as He returns and be included in His entourage during His triumphal descent from Heaven. His coming in this manner will be attended by the general resurrection, the final judgment, and the end of the world.
