It has been said by church historians that in those periods of Christian history where renewal, revival, and awakening took place and the church was at its strongest, that coincidental with those periods in church history, there was a strong focus on the psalms in the life of God's people-particularly in the worship of God's people.

Man’s will is free to follow his inclinations, but fallen man’s inclinations are always and invariably away from God.

We do not segment our lives, giving some time to God, some to our business or schooling, while keeping parts to ourselves. The idea is to live all of our lives in the presence of God, under the authority of God, and for the honor and glory of God. That is what the Christian life is all about.

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.

Nothing could be more irrational than the idea that something comes from nothing.

Image
God is the foundation of all authority, He exercises that foundation because He is the author and the owner of His creation. He is the foundation upon which all other authority stands or falls.

It is the Holy Spirit who inspired the Bible. It is the Holy Spirit who illumines the Bible.

What higher approval could a person enjoy than to know that what he or she has done is pleasing to God?

We are secure, not because we hold tightly to Jesus, but because He holds tightly to us.

Image
We have to determine our theology from the Word of God, not from what we feel.

Image
We are not doomed to an ultimate conflict with no hope of resolution. The message of the Scripture is one of victory - full, final and ultimate victory. It is not our doom that is certain, but Satan's. His head has been crushed by the heel of Christ, who is the Alpha and Omega.

God is serious about how we worship Him, and we must be serious about it, too.

The more sanctified a person is the more heavily weighted his prayer time is in adoration.

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.
