The Christian Life is fought in the spiritual realm but lived out in the trenches of humanity.
********************
I can become more human by becoming more Christ like, but I cannot become more Christ like by becoming more human, in fact, I wouldn’t even try.
********************
It seems loving not to judge another man, but it seems equally unloving to leave a man in judgement
********************
Hell is an embarrassment and the last sign you will get that you were wrong.
********************
Success is measured by many things. Spiritually speaking success is when you seek to find and fulfill all that God has ordained for you to do this day.

It is a good thought to go into the woods to see if one can find himself, but would it not have been better to go into a church to find God?
********************
Fasting is a good way to determine how quickly you may give up on the Lord
********************
In its truest sense, grace is imparted to men by God to those who have repented and accepted a heart change. The result is mercy, forgiveness, restoration. Society, having done away with God, is doing its best to emulate grace, but the best it can offer is fairness, diversity, and inclusiveness. These are all ways of saying "let me do what I want," which is exactly the opposite of grace.

It is good to be worldy-minded
But not without first being eternally and internally minded
Lest you help from selfish ambition and spread personal sin
Rather than the work God has ordained for you to do
For the world’s cup runneth over with the former and has no need for you to add to it.
And is in desperate need of the latter.

Beware the one who obeys the positive commandments only,
And not also the negative.

********************
I pray to thee O Lord this day, that I would attain all the days of my life that you have apportioned me to live, and in living them, to live, and that I would not cut those days short by my own folly.
********************
You don’t bring me reverence, but you sing me love songs
You can’t wait to love me, but how you hate to heed me
And if I require just a little more
You just walk out the door and turn away
********************
You and I have always been friends, we just haven't had the pleasure to meet yet
********************
Man is by his fallen nature prone to sin
And by his human nature prone to Armenianism
Ever escalating on those great steps for the door of confidence
Always reaching, but never attaining
Unless there be in him an awakening
That he is justified by faith
Lestwise, he will continue in his sin,
And try to make recompense by his works.
