Don't lose sight of Christ

Don't lose sight of Christ as you seek for knowledge! Theology is the study of GOD, not the mastery of subjects or the race of intellectuals, and so THEOLOGY should never be detached from WORSHIP, and by worship i mean WORTH-SHIP: that we should grow all the more in our estimation of how great our God is and in seeing Him as more worthy our hearts should LONG for Him all the more!! So then we study, we wrestle with the text so that we might better KNOW Him and make Him KNOWN seeking above all things to be conformed to His image!! ~ Julius Mickel

Captive to the Word of God

‎"My Conscience is captive to the Word of God." - Martin Luther

Jesus promises you two things:...

"Jesus promises you two things: A cross to die on and eternal life. He's everything or He's nothing." ~Paul Washer

We should set the Word of God always before us...

“We should set the Word of God always before us like a rule, and believe nothing but that which it teacheth, love nothing but that which it prescribeth, hate nothing but that which it forbiddeth, do nothing but that which it commandeth." ~ Henry Smith

I do believe that we slander Christ when...

‎"I do believe that we slander Christ when we think that we are to draw the people by something else but the preaching of Christ crucified. We know that the greatest crowd in London has been held together these thirty years by nothing but the preaching of Christ crucified. Where is our music? Where is our oratory? Where is anything of attractive architecture, or beauty of ritual? “A bare service,” they call it. Yes, but Christ makes up for all the deficiencies" C.H. Spurgeon

Faith is the gift of God

Faith is the gift of God – not the result of the persuasion of the evangelist. – Jerry Bridges

How little we know of the compassion of Jesus!

Oh, to realize that souls, precious, never dying souls, are perishing all around us, going out into the blackness of darkness and despair, eternally lost, and yet to feel no anguish, shed no tears, know no travail! How little we know of the compassion of Jesus! – Oswald J. Smith
