We need to take down our "Do not disturb" signs... snap out of our stupor and come out of our coma and awake from our apathy.

Every Christian is a priest, not offering a sacrifice for sins - since that has been done once and for all - but offering his person, praise and possessions.

Satan does some of his worst work on exhausted Christians when nerves are frayed and the mind is faint.

We need to take down our "Do not disturb" signs... snap out of our stupor and come out of our coma and awake from our apathy.

I remember when the Titanic sank in 1912, it was the ship that was supposed to be unsinkable. The only thing it ever did was sink. When it took off from England, all kinds of passengers were aboard - millionaires, celebrities, people of moderate means, and poor folks down in the steerage. But a few hours later when they put the list in the Cunard office in New York, it carried only two categories - lost and saved. Grim tragedy had leveled all distinctions.

The early Christians condemned false doctrine in a way that sounds almost unchristian today.

What our Lord said about cross-bearing and obedience is not in fine type. It is in bold print on the face of the contract.
