Whatever your Bible translation is, it stands on the shoulders of one man - William Tyndale.
A cross without offense to the world is a cross without power in the world.
Souls must be converted here, and if there be not many born to Christ, may the Lord grant to me that I may sleep in the tomb and be heard of no more. Better indeed for us to die than to live, if souls be not saved.
If you miss Christ you miss everything, and if you have Christ you have everything.
God has loved us in spite of us.
We do not sit in authority over the Scripture, the Scripture sits in authority over us.
