Jesus came to seek and to save the lost. He is the Seeker we are the ones who are running.

Image
We talk about predestination because the Bible talks about predestination. If we desire to build our theology on the Bible, we run head on into this concept. We soon discover that John Calvin did not invent it.

The more sanctified a person is the more heavily weighted his prayer time is in adoration.
R. C. Sproul
Image
We prefer the shadows where we feel safe over the light which exposes us and causes us to say 'woe is me!'

Jesus' life was a storm of controversy. The apostles, like the prophets before them, could hardly go a day without controversy. Paul said that he debated daily in the marketplace. To avoid controversy is to avoid Christ. We can have peace, but it is a servile and carnal peace where truth is slain in the streets.

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.

By His life, death, and resurrection, our Savior has conquered our enemies, and by His Spirit He has granted us to share in the victory.

The resurrection was God the Father's way of authenticating all of the truths that were declared by Jesus.

To be conformed to this world is to risk the loss of one’s eternal soul.

Men and women who refuse to acknowledge God's existence do so, in the final analysis, because it is contrary to their manner of living. They do not want to bow to the moral claims of a holy God on their lives.

God’s sovereign will is not at the whim and mercy of our person and individual responses to it.

It's easy to be an educated fool.

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

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

To focus our mind on the task at hand-with fierce concentration-m akes for a productive use of time.

Once we are reconciled to God, the estrangement is over, the hostilities have ended, and the peace is sealed for eternity.

The only way the kingdom of God is going to be manifest in this world before Christ comes is if we manifest it by the way we live as citizens of heaven and subjects of the King.
