A swimmer who will not go in the water is not a swimmer. A Christian who will not take up his cross and follow Jesus is, well...

Our God is one that calms the storms. Jesus is the Fortress in which we are protected and provided for, and when the enemy comes we know we are secure in Him.

The only reason we should fear death is simply that our earthly service for the Lord would cease.

If you don't want to love others or minister to them then don't claim you know Jesus.

Trials and struggles build us up for God's Glory and our good. So view the storms of life as adventures that bring us closer to the treasure that is Jesus.

Seek First the kingdom of God, and put behind you the things of this world following Jesus. He will provide for you and protect you even in the final judgment.

Do you regret that you have offended God or that you will miss out on blessings? Do you weep over hurting Jesus or do you simply fear death?

Though God is omnipotent He chooses not to always use His power. Though God has ultimate sovereignty He chooses not to always be controlling. Though God reigns He chooses to serve. Though God is hated He chooses to love.

Such as the Kenosis of Christ so should we pour ourselves out. Do not be one's equal or one's superior, but their servant. Look not to better yourselves in the name of self-worth, but give up prestige and position for Christ as he did for us.

Fill your child's heart with the words of Scripture and the Gospel of Jesus, so when they come of age and the calling comes, to reject Christ means they must reject everything they have known to be true.

When the fruit falls from a tree it is useful but quondam, leaving the tree the obligation to bear fruit once more lest it be cut down. So must the Christian strive to continually bear fruit.

Doing nothing for the Kingdom of God is assurance that you will not enter the Kingdom of God.

The doctrines of living a comfortable Christian life and dying to self are completely incompatible. The Scriptures teach only one.

Jesus did not come for the sake of religion, but to establish righteousness.

Think not of evil and wickedness as some sort of extreme crime against humanity, for evil is you simply giving into your humanity and wickedness your rejection of the divine.

Do not believe in a Jesus that merely forgives sins...Believe in a Jesus that leads you out of sin.

Pour into your children the things of Heaven and leave them parched for this world.
